Each of us has had difficult experiences: loneliness, anxiety and sadness, grief and loss. These sorrows can seem so overwhelming that our only recourse seems to be to turn away. Yet, if we avoid what is, we avoid life itself.

Using the body, values, dreams and imagination as guides, we can work together to cultivate psychological flexibility: the ability to accept what is, with an eye toward building a different future, a life full of meaning and purpose.
