Mind Management Monday
Simple weekly techniques for looking after your head, expanded from my social posts.
A growing library of small resets
Each Monday I share one short practice you can try in ordinary life.
Some are for interrupting intrusive thoughts. Some are for reclaiming focus. Some are for calming your system before a feeling turns into a spiral. This page collects them together, with the original social video and a fuller explanation of how to use each one.

Intrusive thoughtsHow to use this page
Pick one technique and try it more than once. These are deliberately small practices, but they work best when they become familiar enough to use before your mind has fully run away with itself.
These posts are educational and practical — small tools you can try on your own. If you want more than a quick technique, I am a clinical hypnotherapist with 25+ years' experience, and I can help you work through what is going on underneath.
