Get Out of Your Mind & Into Your Life

Powerful text for the therapeutic school termed Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), applied to the detachment of imparted meaning from the experience of chronic pain. However, the author discloses late in the book that it is written as a religious book from his Buddhist priors. That provides context for his call to make commitments based on what he sees as subjective values. Outside the grammar of transcendence, these become flimsy over time because they are based only around a metavalue of rejecting meaning in the face of experience.
