Cognitive fusion describes our tendency to get ‘fused’ with, tangled up in, or caught up with our thoughts. When we’re fused, we have no perspective on our thoughts, experience our lives through our thoughts and our thoughts control our behaviour.
Defusion helps us to let go of unhelpful thoughts so we can choose to act in more productive ways.

The content is clear and well articulated on all the main points. I found the way the different aspects are connected useful. I saved this text so I can reread it in the future when I need it. It is an article that stands out for the quality of the information presented.
