Life has become a daily battle with your thoughts and fears.

Let’s change that.

The mental aerobics and repetitive behaviors are keeping you from enjoying life.

You’re stuck in your head, chronically doubtful.

You spend an excessive amount of time ensuring certainty, but the relief never lasts.

You judge yourself for having scary, disturbing, or even taboo thoughts. It’s an endless game of figuring out how to control them.

Being alone with your thoughts has become something you dread.

It seems as though your mind is divided.

The rational part that knows better, and the irrational part that always seems to dominate. What you know to be illogical feels so real and urgent in those challenging moments.

You feel foolish for having to do ordinary things in such an extraordinary way.

You don’t want it to be this way, but you don’t know how to make it stop.
