Interactive Cognitive Defusion Tool: Flip the Hook

A Luna & Sol Counseling interactive ACT exercise

Flip the hook

Experience the difference between being inside a thought, feeling, urge, memory, or body alarm and noticing it from a little more distance.

01NameWrite what is showing up
02FlipMove from hooked to unhooked language
03ReturnReconnect with the present and choose
The goal is not to erase or argue with your experience. Defusion creates enough distance to see thoughts as thoughts, feelings as feelings, and urges as urges, which helps you reconnect with the present and choose what happens next.
About 4–7 minutes
