In this episode, I'm going to talk about the DBT skill of Improving the Moment. IMPROVE is used as an acronym to help you remember how you can practice the skill.

Improving the moment is replacing immediate negative events with more positive ones by making the moment more positive and easier to tolerate. Some strategies involve encouraging yourself or by creating meaning in the situation, imagining changes in the situation. Some involve changing your body's responses to events (relaxing). Prayer and focusing on one thing in the moment have to do with acceptance and letting go.
