DBT includes a wide range of cognitive and behavioral treatment procedures, most of which are designed to change thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. Mindfulness skills are taught in DBT within the context of synthesizing acceptance and change. Although the skills taught are similar to those targeted in MBSR, including nonjudgmental observation of thoughts, emotions, sensations, and environmental stimuli, the concepts are organized somewhat differently
