What is Psychological Flexibility?

Psychological flexibility improves problem solving.

As you know, we get ahead in love, work and education by being great problem solvers and having good coping skills. The stress of life can leave us stuck in our heads and not doing our best problem solving. Increasing psychological flexibility increases the amount of problem solving we do. Even more, increasing psychological flexibility means we will try more creative solutions to our problems and helps with stress relief.

Thinking Outside The Box

The popular term for this is "thinking outside the box." It's like tuning your engine to make your car perform better wherever it goes, increasing psychological flexibility supercharges your problem solving. Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) is a set of exercises designed to increase psychological flexibility, and the Matrix is a faster version of ACT.
