Shift from automatic mode to adaptive mode.
Under stress, the brain reacts on autopilot. REALSWITCH teaches you to notice it in a few seconds, several times a day, and to take back control.
Why
You cannot change a reaction you do not notice.
Automatic mode
Under pressure, the brain repeats what it knows: we tense up, we defend ourselves, we ruminate. It happens fast, and we only realise afterwards.
Adaptive mode
The prefrontal brain observes, steps back and looks for a new response. That is the one we want back in charge.
The shift
It can be learned. You only need to observe yourself often, a few seconds each time. After a few weeks, the brain does it on its own.
The anti-stress kit, free
The M.A.P.: three questions, a few seconds.
Several times a day, the app reminds you to observe yourself. Nothing to write, no score, no judgement: you look at what is there, and you carry on.
What am I thinking?
Is my thought helping me, or am I defending myself?
What emotion am I in?
Anger, fear, frustration, calm, joy… I name it, without judging it.
How does my body feel?
A quick scan: jaw, neck, shoulders, belly, breathing.
If you are tense: sensory breathing
Regain your calm to make considered choices.
“Feel the cool and the warm of your breath to bring your attention back into the body, step back, and act fast and well.”
Then your mantra phrase
A sentence you have chosen, which brings you back to a calm, confident state. You find it in the app when you need it.
A rhythm that fits your days
A reminder every 20 minutes by default, adjustable. Busy? You restart without doing the M.A.P., or you pause until the time you choose.
See stress go down
After 21 days, a first milestone: you see how often you were tense, and how it changes week after week.
