As the IPs behaviors/problems developed, the family’s behaviors changed to try and maintain stability
When the IP begins to change in recovery, that disrupts the balance.
When the IP did _____ the family members always reacted with ____
Example:
When John was late coming home from work….
When Sally started sleeping late and going to bed early…

When faced with a problem you can stay miserable, tolerate the distress, change how you think and feel about the problem or change the situation. Distress Tolerance Skills help you tolerate unpleasant feelings until you can think clearly and make the best choice to keep you moving toward your goals.
We all have emotions. By being aware of what triggers yours you can aim to increase positive emotions by IMPROVING the moment, and decrease distress by preventing things that make you more vulnerable to anxiety, depression and irritability.

ACT is a useful tool to help people evaluate the thoughts and feelings underlying their reactions, step back and evaluate whether those behaviors, thoughts and feelings are helping them move toward their goals and commit to thoughts and actions that will improve their happiness and help them move closer to those things which are important to them
Josue Guadarrama, MA Presentation at 2016 Science of HOPE
Description
Developed within a coherent theoretical and philosophical framework, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a unique, empirically based psychological intervention that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with value driven commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility. ACT uses three broad categories of techniques: mindfulness, including being present in the moment and defusion techniques; acceptance; and commitment to values-based living. Participants in this seminar will learn mindfulness as a way of observing ones experience, in the present moment, without judgment and “defuse,” or distancing oneself from unhelpful thoughts, reactions and sensations. Aside from a didactic approach, there will be video examples, and skill practice. Audience participation is highly encouraged.

More from Dr. DawnElise Snipes ★AllCEUs★ Unlimited Counselor Training (20)
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

9. 1. Backward Chaining
Identify triggers and mitigating factors by backward chaining.
Ask the client to describe a situation that triggered the problem
John came home late and I got angry
I had a bad day and came home and drank a bottle of wine
It was valentine’s day and I wasn’t in a relationship so I got depressed
I didn’t sleep well and everything seemed to make me feel overwhelmed
Ask the client to think of a similar situation that did not trigger the
problem
John came home late but he called and let me know.
I had a bad day and decided to go out to dinner with friends from work to
commiserate
It was valentine’s day and I wasn’t in a relationship so I went out with friends
and we celebrated un-valentine’s day together
I didn’t sleep well, so I kept my office door closed and reminded myself that
I can only do what I can do
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
10. 2. Forward Chaining
Add in triggers for behaviors you want to start doing

helpful
Incorporation into treatment
Review sleep hygiene
Develop a sleep routine
Keep a log of symptom severity and sleep
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
13. 5. Sunlight and Circadian Rhythms
The body uses sunlight to set circadian rhythms and make
vitamin D
Vitamin D deficiency is implicated in seasonal affective disorder,
behavioral withdrawal
Sunlight exposure related positively to job satisfaction and
organizational commitment, and negatively to depressed mood
and anxiety
Bright light therapy has been found effective for addressing
eating disorders, depression, fatigue, sleep disruption
Incorporation
Sunlight exposure first thing in the morning and throughout the day
Light boxes
Full-spectrum lights (100watt or more) within 1 meter
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
14. 6. Oxygenation
Oxygen is needed for serotonin and ATP-synthesis
Relaxing Deep Breathing has been shown to attenuate
pain perception, tension, anger, anxiety and depression
and improve sleep
Incorporation
Breathing breaks
Exercise improves mood, cognition and sleep
Even in healthy adults without clinical depression, exercise has
improved depressive symptoms.
Exercise may modulate dopaminergic and glutamatergic
neurotransmission as well as serotonin, noradrenaline, and GABA
systems, which are all related to depression, anxiety, and sleep
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
15. 6. Oxygenation
Laughter
Alters dopamine and serotonin activity, decreases cortisol levels
and increases endorphin release
Impacts depression, anxiety, pain, immunity, fatigue, sleep quality,
respiratory function and blood glucose
Significantly decreased adults' depression, anxiety, and improved
their sleep quality
Integrating laughter into the treatment plan– 10-15
minutes per day prior to stressful situations, and at the
end of the day to “reset” the system.
Laughter distracts from distress and “breaks the loop”
Laughter increases good chemicals
Laughter increases oxygenation
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
16. 7. Hardiness
Hardiness
Commitment: Tendency to involve oneself in activities in life and as
having a genuine interest in and curiosity about the surrounding
world (activities, things, other people) and to recognize ones’ self
as multidimensional
Control: Tendency to believe and act as if one can influence the
events
Challenge: Belief that change, rather than stability, is the normal
mode of life and constitutes motivating opportunities
Improves: Cardiovascular health, anxiety, response to
bullying, insomnia, reduces neuroticism, rumination and
worry
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
17. Hardiness
Incorporating it
Have clients identify all the different aspects of self which are
important
Health
Housing
Family
Friends
Finances
Job
Other…
When unpleasant things happen, encourage them to identify 5 things
that are going well, how this event represents a growth opportunity
and what aspects of the situation they can change.
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
18. 8. Cognitive Restructuring
Cognitive Restructuring teaches people to identify and
dispute maladaptive thoughts
Cognitive Restructuring can assist in increasing perceived
efficacy, altering negative self-concept, enhancing pain
tolerance, reducing hopelessness and helplessness
associated with anxiety and depression
Incorporating into the treatment plan
Worksheets (CPT, ABC-Des)
Identifying 3 alternatives
Finding meaning
Note: Older adults with anxiety and depression are worse at learning
and benefiting from CR with a brief intervention, partially due to
having poorer cognitive flexibility
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
19. 9. Cognitive Dissonance
Create dissonance between unwanted behaviors, thoughts and
emotions to encourage purposeful change-- (It may be
pleasurable (or “safe”), but it does not help me)
Resolve dissonance between helpful behaviors (exercise, sleep,
nutrition)-- (It’s good for me, but it is awful)
Cognitive dissonance has been shown to be maximized by four
factors:
Voluntary nature
Absence of an external justification
High public accountability
Dissonance-inducing behaviors required a high level of effort
Incorporation
Self-talk scripts
Make dissonant behaviors difficult
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
20. 10. Mindfulness
Mindfulness meditation and cognitive therapy cultivates an
awareness of one’s feelings, urges, thoughts and perceptions in
the present moment, without judgement and relate
constructively (purposefully) to those experiences to improve
the next moment
Mindfulness meditation improves pain perception, anxiety and
depression, emotion regulation, insomnia, binge eating
The key is not only being aware and accepting of the present
moment, but also figuring out how to relate constructively to it
–Change the situation, change your reaction, let it go…
Incorporation
Mealtime/General mindfulness—Awareness and early intervention
Problem focused mindfulness (pain, anxiety, habits)
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
21. 11. Guided Imagery
Guided imagery improves mood, fatigue, and quality of
life, pain perception, anxiety and depression
Incorporating it
Envision success
Take a mental vacation
Envision healing
Altered focus (physical discomfort—pain, cravings, urges)
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
22. 12. Biofeedback--HRV
Heart rate increases are associated with increased stress
and HPA-Axis activation
Prolonged HPA-Axis activation contributes to fatigue,
insomnia, difficulty concentrating and problem solving,
irritability, anxiety and depression
HRV-BF is effective at reducing symptoms of depression,
anxiety and “stress” as well as pain perception
Incorporating it
Fitness trackers with “stress feedback”
Heart rate monitors/fitness trackers can be used at point of distress
to alter focus and reduce HPA-Axis activation (fight or flight
response)
Planned relaxation breaks
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Live Webinars $4 | Addiction Counselor Certification Training $149
23. 13. Distress Tolerance
Distress tolerance significantly mitigates depression,
substance misuse, negative affect, stress, intolerance of
uncertainty, and anxiety sensitivity
Distress tolerance is related to reductions in cortisol and
HRV by altering how people perceive and relate to
stressors.
Incorporation (SPAM-IT)
Sensations
Positive focus
Activities
Mental vacation
Thought stopping
Imagery
