Radical acceptance is about accepting reality or allowing the world to be just as it is.
This is a simple idea but a very hard concept to put into practice. Although we may wish
to radically accept our deepest, most painful experiences, it is more wise to start with
small tasks that are easier for you to accept like missing your favorite TV show last night
as opposed to your traumatic childhood. The easier the task is, the more like you are to
have success and the more success you have, the more likely you are to use the skill
again and build mastery. Above all, remember we do not achieve radical acceptance; we
practice radial acceptance.

INSTRUCTIONS:
For this homework task, you are going to pick something that causes you distress. It can
be a situation, an idea, a place, anything that exists that causes you pain. Try to pick
something that is on low end of distress since we want to start small. For example, you
might practice accepting that its a cloudy day or that you have to wait in line at a store.
Try to pick something that you are likely to have success with. Once you have chosen
your acceptance topic, answer question 1 and review the rest of the questions so you
know what to pay attention to while engaged in the practice. When you have completed
your acceptance task. (How long you practice is up to you. Then record your experience
using the worksheet as your guide.
1.On a scale from 0-100, what is my level of acceptanceBEFOREpracticing
Radical Acceptance?
2.Create a Radical Acceptance mantra that you can say to yourself that helps you
turn toward acceptance. For example, you might say. The only way to let go of
suffering is to accept suffering. or I dont like it, but it is what it is. or Pain +
Non-acceptance = Suffering.
3.What Problem thoughts came up if any?
4.What body sensations did I notice while practicing radical acceptance?
