Psychological acceptance is "the active embracing of subjective experience, particularly distressing experiences." In this episode, I will discuss practicing acceptance and using the OODA loop as decision-making tools to help us act more skillfully during difficult or stressful times.

Sonoris

La Vita Del Piano Di Sopra

Written, produced and mixed by Austen Moret

VERSE I
I never thought I’d be just another phone call
Some kid you read about, the bottom of page three
Some story or headline you forgot in no time 
Guess my hearts upon my sleeve, an awful sight to see

PRE CHORUS
So picture me in the back of a cop car
Broken limbs, dirty mess cause you’re so far
If you’re gone, would you come back if I bleed?

CHORUS
You and I are amazing
It wasn’t fiction in my mind
You and I are amazing
I love you more and more each time

VERSE II
I’m driving my car, as if it were burning 
I may not survive, but that’s not the point 
Cause if I die slowly, then maybe you’d love me
And this is all inside my head, but it helps me to sleep

PRE CHORUS
So picture me in the street, by the wayside
Broken limbs, dirty mess, would it make you cry?
If you’re gone, would you come back if I bleed?

CHORUS
You and I are amazing
It wasn’t fiction in my mind
You and I are amazing
I love you more and more each time

BRIDGE
In twenty seconds maybe I’ll be gone
I did it all, just to see your face
The paramedics say I’m hangin’ on 
Cause I don't wanna be here all alone

CHORUS
You and I are amazing
It wasn’t fiction in my mind
You and I are amazing
I love you more and more each time
