ScubaFlex
ACT for Scuba Divers
A seven week group for scuba divers to learn stuff that can help us stay fit-to-dive in lots of different ways through improving psychological flexibility. Whether you want skills to help you get off the sofa and go for a run, or strategies for dealing with the intrusive "what if ...." thoughts, learning psychological flexibility skills will help you.
It's a dry group and your participation is separate from your own diving activities. There is no dive training and no in-water practice at all, and it's suitable for all levels and qualifications.
Seven divers meet on Zoom.
Each lasts 70 minutes.
You will also access a private online area, for you and the rest of your group, to download the program resources (pdfs, audios, exercises) and discussion forum.
The program includes:
What will we do?
The skills we will learn are highly transferable, so although we will be focusing on your scuba diving, you may see unexpected benefits to other areas of your life!
