Pick ONE experiment for this week
- Physiological sighs after difficult emails (1–3 sighs)
- Extended exhales before meetings (4–6 rounds)
- Shake-outs after stressful moments (45 seconds + orienting)
- SET check-ins when you feel 'off'
- 'Of course' validation when you notice worry or self-criticism
Make it specific
Use this formula:
