Can defusion ever become a habit?

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Am just wondering if anyone knows if defusion skills can become a habit

if practised regularly? I've taken to practising them a lot more now as

I was previously only doing so when I 'felt' like it...I'm determined

to stick with it on a daily basis and am also aware that consistency =

skill.

I've a few other hurdles to get past such as building my willingness

skills and values work but for now I'm going to focus mainly on

defusion.

Another quick question I'd like to hear others thoughts on is - is the

mindfulness aspect (mainly the observing self bit) neccesary for the

other ACT skills? The reason I ask is that after practising that type

of mindfulness I found I was so aware of things more than usual that it

became overwhelming (ie. there was a lot more I needed to be willing

and defused for).
