## Script

Welcome to this cognitive defusion practice, often known as leaves on a stream.

Begin by finding a comfortable seated position and allowing your breath to settle into a natural rhythm.

Gently close your eyes or soften your gaze, and imagine yourself sitting beside a quiet, slow-moving stream.

Notice the water flowing steadily past you, carrying autumn leaves gently along its surface.
