With this guide, you will...
Switch off instead of thinking about it all night
Stop everything feeling so intense
Feel mentally lighter, not constantly “on”
Enjoy your day without your thoughts taking over
Some of what's inside:
Why the room you're in might be why you can't stop the spiral
and it has nothing to do with what you're thinking about
How much negative thinking you're actually doing
using simple tests, in the form of games, you can do anywhere, anytime
How your brain only shows you 40 bits of reality out of 11 million
and it's choosing which 40 based on something you might not like
There's a specific exhale length that calms your nervous system
and you're probably doing the opposite without realising.
Your peripheral vision has a direct line to your nervous system
and it takes about three seconds to use it to stop your mind from going into over-drive
You don’t need to stop your thoughts… just stop feeding them.

Who this is for...
If any of these feel familiar, you're not alone.
If you wake up already in a low mood, before anything has even happened.
If you replay conversations on a loop, imagining what you should have said.
If you predict worst-case scenarios before anything's gone wrong.
If you feel mentally exhausted, not from what you've done, but from what you've been thinking.
If you've tried journaling, positive thinking, podcasts, books, but the spirals still catch up with you.
Why you can’t stop overthinking
(and what actually helps)
This 7-minute video explains exactly why your brain works this way and what to do about it.
Includes a simple exercise you can try today.

Why I created the R.E.S.E.T method
It wasn’t until I realised how much easier it was for me to maintain a bad mood than a good one that I started to question my thoughts.
You know that saying:
“Your mind is like a garden and your thoughts are seeds. You can grow flowers or you can grow weeds.”
Well… I had been growing weeds.
The background chatter in my mind was exhausting.
-
I should be doing that other important thing I’ve been neglecting.
-
I’m not good enough to do x, y, z.
-
I’m not the kind of person who succeeds.
And it just went round and round.
For a long time I didn’t even realise what was happening. But I could feel the effects.
Low mood. Frustration. Shame. Overwhelm. Sometimes snapping at the people I loved.
The strange thing was, I felt like I was doing everything right. I was reading self-help books, listening to podcasts, exercising, eating well, sleeping properly, even deleting social media.
Some of it helped. But it was like I was constantly running from my thoughts… and they always caught up with me.
Until I realised something important.
I was missing self-awareness and mental training.

So I started experimenting...
Breath-work. Meditation. Journaling. Visualisation. Yoga. Hundreds of hours of podcasts and books.
But nothing gave me a simple way to interrupt negative thinking when it actually started happening.
So eventually I built my own method:
A simple five-step process I now use whenever I notice a negative spiral starting.
That method became R.E.S.E.T.
And it’s what this guide will teach you.
