One High Quality Moment For You - 14th OCT 2019
Are you up to the challenge? It’s not for everyone.
See things clearer - get clarity
Reduce stress and self criticism - feel lighter
Strengthen trust in yourself and others - a protective habit
What’s The Plan?
Reserve a place here - capacity is limited. Entry closes on 1st October 2019.
You commit to one high quality (4 Breath) moment for you on 14th October. In return we will help you ‘get in training’ by creating a protective pause. Learning the simplest techniques to recharge, refocus and strengthen relationships.
The science behind the techniques used is simple. They are proven to be effective while fitting into what behavioural science calls ‘MVE’ Minimal Viable Effort. If it feels easy it’s much easier to repeat and become a useful habit.
You will have one week to get into training before 14th Oct. This will be a commitment of 5 - 10 mins per day over four consecutive days. Your time is precious we want to use it wisely. It’s been designed for those of us who struggle to turn good intentions into useful actions. (If you dont feel up to it this year, thats ok).

Why?
The ‘chimp’ part of the human brain is the most powerful. Its constantly looking for threats (for our survival) this means all humans find it easier to find negatives.
The volume of work and responsibilities demanding our attention means we often neglect to protect time for ourselves to have a moment to recover.
We release increasing stress hormones, lose perspective, erode trust in ourselves and find it harder to solve the daily challenges of life at work and home.
4 Breath Moment makes it easy to do things you’ve already been meaning to do; 1. Give yourself permission for a protective pause each day. 2. Reduce distraction 3. Get clarity.
It uses simple techniques proven by behavioural and neuroscience. We have chosen techniques which feel easy and often provide immediate benefit.
You learn how to manage your headspace more effectively. Helping you feel better, get perspective and focus more effectively.
The Science
Who Started It?
My main job is helping people manage difficult thoughts and emotions. Each month I research the latest studies to understand if there are techniques that might benefit me, my children and the organisations I support. Over the last few years I’ve noticed these two themes recurring with increased frequency:
Relationship are the most influential factor on our mental wellbeing. If our relationships are ok, we are ok. However, if we are struggling with just one relationship the negative effect on our stress levels can be significant.
Mobile phone use can be severely detrimental to relationships and how we try and cope with our own difficult thoughts and emotions (anxiety, anger, guilt, shame etc).
Since that ‘a-ha’ moment I’ve tested techniques on myself and with my children. I’ve learnt that phones aren’t all bad, we just need to learn how to manage our use of them more effectively. The aim of Zero Phone is to make it simple to ‘reset your phone habits’ replacing the unhelpful ones with useful ones. Helping you protect yourself from difficult thoughts while strengthening the relationships you care about the most. You can read more about me here.
