COURSE
With Jennifer Deiana
Stop fighting stress and start using it. The Stress Reset is an immersive audio course designed to fundamentally change how you perceive and handle pressure. We treat stress not as an enemy to be eliminated, but as a powerful, natural energy source to be understood and strategically deployed. You’ll move beyond superficial coping tips and dive into the biological mechanics of your body’s alarm system, learning how to distinguish between motivating Eustress and harmful Distress. This course provides a comprehensive toolkit, blending accessible neurobiology with immediate, high-impact practices you can use the moment stress strikes, alongside strategies for building long-term resilience. Upon completing this course, you will be able to: Understand the Science: Clearly explain the HPA Axis and the role of hormones like Cortisol and Adrenaline in the body's Fight or Flight response. Harness Positive Pressure: Differentiate between Eustress (positive, energizing stress) and Distress (negative, draining stress) and learn how to shift your mindset to maximize performance in the "sweet spot" of optimal arousal. Decode Your Triggers: Map your personal stress profile by identifying external stressors, internal demands (like perfectionism), and your default coping mechanisms (Fight, Flight, Freeze, or Fawn). Interrupt the Cycle: Master high-impact, immediate techniques, including the Physiologic Sigh and the 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Method, to instantly calm your nervous system. Build Resilience: Establish sustainable, proactive habits—like setting healthy boundaries, improving sleep hygiene, and nourishing your nervous system—to raise your baseline tolerance for pressure. What Students Can Expect Clear, Conversational Delivery: Complex scientific concepts are broken down using simple analogies (like the car engine and the HPA factory) for easy understanding. Immediate Actionable Tools: Each module concludes with a practical "Action Item" or technique you can implement right away, with guided practice sessions included (e.g., the 2-minute Guided Breath). A Personalized Plan: You will create your own Stress Go-To Card—a customized plan listing your preferred immediate tool and long-term resilience habit—to ensure lasting change beyond the course completion. No Fluff: This course focuses on practical, research-backed methods for managing pressure in the modern world. Join The Stress Reset to transform your relationship with stress and reclaim your focus, energy, and peace of mind.
