Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes explains the CBT-informed concept "Living in the And": accepting that good and bad can co-exist so one can still lead a rich, meaningful life despite pain or anxiety. She gives brief examples (experiencing pain yet having a meaningful life; feeling anxious but still enjoying a child's recital) and encourages acknowledging pain while embracing one’s strength.
Hey there everybody. I'm Doc Snipes and today we're talking about Living in the and every day is not an a day and life is not going to happen without experiencing some pain. However, having pain or having a bad day doesn't mean you can't have a rich and meaningful life. Living in the end means embracing the good with the bad. I can be experiencing pain and have a rich and meaningful life. I can experience anxiety and still go to my kids recital and enjoy seeing them perform. Living in the and encourages people to embrace the pain and acknowledge the pain and embrace their strength.
