“…This exercise is emotionally evocative, fully activates the depressive network, and should facilitate cognitive and emotional processing and a reduction in symptoms of depression. In this phase of therapy, we integrate principles from exposure‐based therapies for trauma (Foa & Rothbaum, 1997; Resick & Schnicke, 1993), emotion‐focused therapy (Greenberg, 2002a), and schema‐focused therapies (Beck, 1996; Elliott & Lassen, 1998; Young, Klosko, & Weishaar, 2003). After this destabilization phase, we spend another three to five sessions helping clients to solidify the changes made, address their fears of hope and positive experiences, and set goals that are more consistent with the life they want to live.…”

Bishop et al. (this issue) propose an operational definition of mindfulness developed by a recent consensus panel.The group provides a solid empirical framework from which to develop measures of mindfulness, and they propose an exciting research agenda. We describe measurement development work from our research group that provides initial support for the proposed consensus definition and that examines mindfulness in relation to emotion regulation variables. We extend the discussion by describing how mindfulness can enhance the stabilizing and destabilizing aspects of therapeutic change, and we illustrate this in the context of our treatment program for depression.
