"Dropping Anchor" is a powerful grounding technique designed to help you stay steady in the midst of emotional turbulence.
It can be used to manage difficult thoughts, feelings, memories, urges, and physical sensations more effectively.
Rooted in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), this practice is taught and narrated by Dr Russ Harris — therapist, trainer of health professionals, and author of The Happiness Trap (along with eight other books).
This is a fantastic centering exercise to keep in your mental health toolkit, for whenever life feels overwhelming or chaotic.
Join our Month of Mindfulness Challenge 30 days of short daily practices to help you slow down, check in, and care for your mind.
