Free ACT resource for clients and therapists
This practical adaptation of the Dropping Anchor exercise helps clients apply mindfulness when struggling to get out of bed. Created by Dr Russ Harris, it’s ideal for clients experiencing depression, anxiety, or morning overwhelm.
The handout explains how to acknowledge feelings, reconnect with the body, and engage with the present, all from the comfort of bed, before gradually transitioning into action.
