The latest research supports promoting psychological flexibility as the cornerstone of learning, psychological health, and overall well being. Psychological flexibility is simply the ability to notice one's actions and to be able to notice how actions work to help us move toward the people and things that are important to us. It is something we all possess and the ACT Matrix allows you to introduce this skill to your learners and quickly get everyone on the same page.

The ACT Matrix (ACT stands for Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Training) is a visual diagram that represents the core learning processes of ACT so students of all ages can be psychologically flexible and learn what works. The process "loosens up" stuck and struggling learners by empowering them to move toward resilience and persistence in the face of everyday common obstacles and challenges.

In schools, classrooms, and other gathering places, the Matrix has many uses. These include mental health interventions, social-emotional learning, classroom management, and interpersonal skill-building. Using the Matrix on a regular basis creates a powerful climate of caring, connection, and responsibility.

In a series of short video lessons, you will have everything you need to get started with mindful engagement. The Prosocial Matrix Communication Process can be taught to students of all ages and allows them to experience a point of view that will want to use both in and out of the classroom. It can be used for individuals and groups in both regular and special education settings. It is particularly useful for reluctant learners and those that struggle behaviorally and emotionally.

Those who use it report reduced stress both for themselves and their students. Students learn in real time the skills of self-monitoring and self-regulation which leads to happier, healthier individuals and groups.
