Mind Full or Mindful?
Often times, people go about their day on autopilot, driving, walking, working, thinking about something else, whether it be something that happened the day before, the ongoing to-do list in their head, or the overwhelming number of upcoming events and activities in the coming weeks - one might say they are "mind full." The practice of mindfulness seeks to develop a person's ability to fully engage in the moment as it occurs.
Integrating Mindfulness, ACT, and ABA
AIM seeks to change the context which a behavior occurs, the child's relationship to thoughts and feelings about events (what they think or what others say), and to reinforce a set of flexible, adaptive behaviors that lead to preferred outcomes. In order to do so, the child learns to identify when his or her thoughts and feeling are preventing him or her from accessing meaningful outcomes and to make choices that increase access to those outcomes even when they are delayed.
AIM synthesizes the development of mindful practice, therapeutic reconditioning, and functional behavior management by infusing ACT and mindful awareness into each part of the behavioral event.
