Everything you do and feel occurs in a context. You are shaped by your learning history, your environment, other people, and you are continuously shaping the world around you. In this episode, Emily Sandoz shares how you can apply the ACT concepts of functional contextualism and interbehaviorism to build a juicier, richer, values-based life. Learn to resource yourself and thrive in whatever context you are in.
Emily Sandoz, Evelyn Gould, and Troy Dufrene join us to talk about their paper, Ongoing, Explicit and Direct Functional Assessment is a Necessary Component of ACT as Behavior Analysis: A Response to Tarbox et al.
This episode is incredibly important given the high likelihood that you will identify with the experience of being dissatisfied with your body at some point in your life. Further, an increasing number of both women and men do then go on to develop eating disorders. Alongside this, you have no doubt heard of the #bodypositive movement – it is growing – but, Dr. Sandoz talks through the reasons why this may actually be more harmful than helpful. Instead, Dr. Sandoz will introduce you to the concept of body image flexibility, and how you can make peace with your and life a life that feels full to you.
