Fear and Willingness

[Guest guest]

I've been in ACT therapy for almost a year and have read and done most

of the exercises in the " Get out of your mind " book. I recently

noticed a thought that I've been having for a long time (years and

years) and think maybe that this thought is the cornerstone of my

extreme shyness and social anxiety. Even though I have noticed this

thought " as a thought " there is still a large amount of fear associated

with this thought. How do you move from noticing it to being willing

to experience it?
