If your to-do list makes your hands jittery before your first sip of coffee — these are the 3 exercises I’d teach you first

I get it — you have a lot to do.

Caring for your family.
Endless work tasks.
Household chores.
Baking a cake for your best friend’s birthday tomorrow…

And somewhere in there, trying to carve out time for yourself — because you so desperately need it.

But when?

You’re sitting at your table, coffee in your hands, already stressed.
How did this happen?
How are you not able to enjoy life?

It is beautiful, isn’t it?
There are so many wonderful moments — yet they’re hard to see through the responsibilities and exhaustion.

You need a reset.

I see you.
I’ve been there, too.
Many times.

Asking myself:
How can I handle all of this?
How can I make my life more peaceful?
How can I relax without disappointing someone or forgetting something important?

Here’s what I want you to really hear:

There’s only one thing you need to do right now.

Learn to care for your nervous system.
Reset your nervous system.

Because everything else you do runs through this filter:
☀ How much you can handle.
☀ How much energy you have.
☀ How much joy you can feel.
☀ How resilient you are.

Before you start changing anything else, change the way you hurry through life.
Change the way you neglect your own needs.
Change the amount of anxiety you accept as “normal” every day.

That’s exactly what we do inside The Soft Reset.

Here are three exercises you can try right now:

1. Hands on Heart
Place both hands on your heart.
Circle them clockwise with comfortable pressure while affirming:
"It is safe to slow down. I am safe to relax. I can just be for a second."
Stay here as long as you need.

2. Tension Release Flow
Place fingertips over your eyelids and exhale.
Move to your temples and inhale.
Slide your hands behind your ears and down your neck, exhale.
Rest your hands on your shoulders and inhale.
Bring both hands to your heart and exhale.
Stay as long as you need and feel the calm spread.

This little exercises tells your system that you can relax - that you are safe. Repeat as often as needed….

3. Anchor Object
Choose something you love — a crystal, keyring, or piece of jewellery.
Focus on it fully for 60 seconds: notice every detail, texture, and weight.
Breathe in, then exhale with a long sigh, imagining calmness washing over you like a gentle shower.
Stay as long as you need.

…you just have created an anchor object - yay! Everytime you use it, it reinforces the connection between this object and being relaxed..and sooner than you’ll notice, the moment you see this object, your body starts to relax automatically.

And because a real shift doesn’t have to come from pressure — it can come from peace.
