Author
Summary, in English
Reviews the video, This one moment: Skills for everyday mindfulness by M. M. Linehan (2003). Marsha Linehan is well known as the developer of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a comprehensive treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD). In "This One Moment," Linehan explains, with easy-to-follow and creative examples, how to be more fully in the present. She divides her instructions into two main areas, improving "what you do" and "how you do it." In the first category, she encourages the pure observation of internal or external events, while minimizing comments, distractions, and thought suppression. Linehan avoids technical lingo and excessive details, and provides various common-sense illustrations of the points she wishes to make.
