Lektion 1

Returning To The Present Moment

This lesson helps you recognize when overwhelm is taking hold and understand how it affects your mind and body. You’ll learn a simple, practical technique to bring your attention back to the present moment. By practicing this reset, you create space to respond to challenges with clarity rather than reactivity.

Lektion 2

Creating Emotional Space

Today’s lesson focuses on the internal pressure we place on ourselves and how it amplifies feelings of overwhelm. You’ll practice separating emotions from immediate responsibilities, giving yourself room to acknowledge what you feel. This approach helps you move through stress with more calm and intentionality.

Lektion 3

Building A Personal Anchor

In this lesson, you’ll combine the practices from the first two days to create a personal grounding ritual. You’ll learn a short, repeatable exercise that brings your mind and body back to steadiness anytime you feel overwhelmed. By establishing this anchor, you gain a tool to maintain clarity and presence in daily life and stressful moments.
