The University of Sydney - Cognitive Defusion Tip Sheet

The University of Sydney - Cognitive Defusion Tip Sheet

We all have a tendency to over identify with our thoughts, amplifying them in our minds to the status of ‘facts’ and ‘the truth’. When we become used to our thoughts in this way, the thoughts themselves can become over-controlling preventing us from seeing other options.

The purpose of cognitive defusion is to enable you to be aware of the actual process of your thinking so you are better able to reflect objectively and problem solve effectively before taking any action.
