✨ Feeling overwhelmed? The DBT STOP Skill can help you pause before you react. ✨

In moments of stress or strong emotion, it’s easy to act impulsively — but a mindful pause can change everything.

The DBT STOP skill teaches you how to:
🛑 Stop before reacting
🚶 Take a step back
👀 Observe what’s really happening
🧘‍♀️ Proceed mindfully

Learn how this simple DBT technique can help you regulate emotions, make wiser choices, and respond calmly — even in the heat of the moment.

🌿 Stress Awareness Day is a reminder that we all experience stress — but we can learn to respond skilfully rather than react automatically.

DBT teaches that stress is part of being human. The goal isn’t to remove it, but to recognise it, validate it, and use our skills to manage it effectively.

✨ Try this today:
1️⃣ Pause and take a mindful breath.
2️⃣ Name what’s prompting your stress.
3️⃣ Choose a Wise Mind action — even a small one.

👻 This Halloween, fear might be in the air — but it doesn’t have to run the show.

DBT reminds us: emotions are information, not instructions.

💭 Feel the fear — and act from Wise Mind.

Whether it’s facing a difficult conversation, a new challenge, or the unknown, you can acknowledge your fear and take skilful action. 🌕

Last week, our team attended the Society for DBT UK & Ireland’s 2025 conference, themed “DBT and the Body.”

Across two days, we explored how bodily awareness shapes emotion regulation and recovery.

💬 Masterclasses on DBT Benchmarking, FND, PMDD, and Cognitive Modification
🌍 Updates on DBT developments across Europe
🎤 Keynotes from Dr Deborah Barrett and Dr Cynthia Price
🍽 Workshops on DBT and RO-DBT for Disordered Eating

We left inspired to bring these insights into our work at DBT-UK — from training to supervision and clinical practice.

💡 Motivation isn’t something we have to wait for. In Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), we learn that action often creates motivation, not the other way around.

✨ Try these DBT-inspired ways to build motivation:
✔️ Mindfulness – pause and connect with your values.
✔️ Wise Mind – choose actions that balance logic and emotion.
✔️ Opposite Action – do the helpful thing, even if you don’t feel like it.
✔️ Radical Acceptance – acknowledge reality so you can move forward.

Every small step counts. 🌱

👉 Save this for when motivation feels low, and remember: progress is possible even in tiny steps.
