IMPROVE the Moment

Oct 28, 2021

In today's episode, we explore the Dialectical Behavior Therapy skill, IMPROVE the moment. This acronym is a helpful tool when we are feeling distressed and need to distract ourselves from a challenging moment. By using imagery, meaning, relaxation, vacations, encouragement, and mindfulness, we can help ourselves in challenging moments and in times of crisis.
