Decentration
Decentering is the ability to notice thoughts and emotions as experiences rather than as full descriptions of reality.
Definicja
Decentration helps create distance between the person and automatic mental content. Instead of "I am hopeless" there is "I think I am hopeless". This change in language may reduce identification with thought, support emotion regulation, and facilitate the choice of action consistent with values.

Częste błędne rozumienie
It is a mistake to use decentering to cut yourself off from emotions. The goal is not coldness, but greater freedom in choosing the answer.
