Deep Rest For Resilience
3-Month restoration programme, empowering you to slow down, rest, and reclaim the calm core of your being
Is it time to step back and reclaim a life of ease, comfort, and well-being?
The last few years have taken their toll on many, with burnout, overwhelm, long-term emotional stress and exhaustion now being something many have adjusted to and consider to be the ‘new normal’.
But what happens when you reach your limit and there’s no more room for more?
Learning how to stop, rest, and be quiet might seem like something you already know or think is simple to achieve, but pushing back against social norms and finding the strength, inspiration, and insight needed to resist the culture of better, faster, and more can be harder than you think.
Imagine having all the support you need and being educated in ways that help manage your mindset, allowing you to step into more of the life that you want. A life that feels within your control, well-paced for your mental and emotional needs, so you can enjoy deeply rewarding days that are full of both contentment and fulfillment.
By reclaiming the right to stop, rest, and ‘be’, profound insights and new visions of life naturally emerge. It’s the greatest paradox - that by doing nothing, so much will change.
If you’re looking for a way to reclaim your well-being and learn how to stop and unravel the pressure and intensity of a too-fast life, then you’ve found the right place.
Is the ‘new normal’ something we should simply accept and adjust to, or is it possible to reclaim a sense of well-being, even amidst adversity? It’s time to stop when:
Life feels like drinking from a fire hose
You find yourself unable to get to everything you need to do in your life
Each day feels like a relentless hamster wheel, churning your sense of happiness into a frenzy of activity
Some days you simply don’t know where to start - let alone carry on -to meet the challenges you’re facing
If any of this speaks to you and you identify with some of the statements above, you could be on the brink of burnout. The challenge that many people face when feeling this ‘edge’ is that - without listening to that voice that’s crying out for you to stop and find another way - you’ll teeter over that edge and find it deeply challenging to come back from.
Life doesn’t stop, but you can.
There’s a new way of relating to your life that’s simple and requires no effort. In fact, it’s possible for you to take away from, not add to your life’s burdens, and a big part of it is learning to pause, stop and remember that you’re ok as you are.
Less, not more.
Unravelling, not adding more complexity.
If you’re motivated to be the calm amidst the storm and find a refreshing approach to the modern malady of ‘too much’, then what’s on offer here could fundamentally and radically change your life for the better.
Overcome overwhelm and explore a variety of approaches that will unravel and resolve burnout, leaving you feeling well-resourced, vibrant and full of fresh vigour for life.
Understand the emotions and deeper beliefs that are driving your participation in the relentless pace of life.
Start listening to the quieter voice inside yourself that always knows what to do, how to respond and what to say yes and no to.
Find creative insight and new perspectives on how to meet your most challenging problems
Grow a relationship with Rest and be centred in your calm resourced self, even amidst the challenging days where stopping just isn’t an option.

This programme focuses on building capacity for being flexible in the face of challenge - being able to bend, but not break.
If you want something you've never had before, you need to do something you've never done before.
The Deep Rest For Resilience Program is designed to help you develop an unshakable sense of ease and well-being, no matter what.
The Deep Rest For Resilience Programme will introduce you to your most rested nature – the place where you can access peacefulness, creativity for problem-solving, and your quiet, calm core, even when your mind and body are challenged.
Over the last 10 years, I’ve worked with hundreds of time-pressed people looking for a way to feel truly happy and at ease, yet still enjoying a full and fulfilling life. Many were feeling empty and tired. Most said they didn’t have the time to do things like meditation or another self-improvement program.
Deep Rest showed them that there is a simpler way to experience:
An uninterrupted core of bulletproof resilience
A calm and ease that stays throughout the day
The ability to feel spacious amidst the crazy-assed pace of life
The ability to pivot and handle anything life throws your way
And it wasn’t about carving out time from a busy schedule: Deep Rest practices open up time and instill a deep sense of stability and energy. This can enable you to become less reactive, and more responsive. It will give you clarity about what matters most and where to direct your core actions in work and life.
This is a powerful, 3-month transformation for anybody who wants to thrive amidst the chaos, so much so that the people around them say “Woooooooha, what happened to you? I want some of what you’ve got!”
What’s stopping you from living the life you want?
Programme Content
The Programme is divided into 5 pillars, each building on the previous, which we will explore over a two-to-three-week period. Each week you’ll receive simple instructions for experiencing meditative moments, non-sleep Deep Rest practices, and inquiries. The content will be delivered in bite-sized chunks – enough to stoke the fire of transformation but to avoid overwhelm. These are practices that will support your time, not take from it!
PILLARS
Pillar 1 - Overcome Overwhelm
Pillar 2 - Unwavering Resilience
Pillar 3 - Positive Intuition
Pillar 4 - Pathways To Insight
Pillar 5 -Steadfast Fortitude
Pillar 1
Overcome Overwhelm
From Intensity to Tranquility.
Understand the neuroscientific discovery of the ‘Default Mode Network’ and how our brains are naturally wired to keep vigil for threats.
Flip Your Thinking. Explore practices that are research-proven to transform negative and recursive loops of thought and promote a deep sense of well-being. Discover how these practices pave the way for easy access to deeper rest.
Get Out Of Your Head. Our minds constantly produce thoughts, and it’s very hard to stop it. When we pay attention to body sensations, a natural transition from thinking to feeling takes place. Learn to exchange unending trains of thought for a deeply restful experience of inhabiting your physicality. Dissolve physical tension and learn how to rest the mind.
Unwavering Attention. Building on pillars 1, 2 and 3, learn to establish a steady and stable flow of concentration. Get over common pitfalls that create frustration by establishing a middle ground of relaxed effort, allowing for easy and accessible one-pointed focus.
The Depths Of Being. We all knew how to ‘be’ when we were young children, yet as adults, we’re not taught how to value the art of doing nothing. Break down self-judgments and ideas about time and value and rediscover your most rested self.
Pillar 2
Unwavering Resilience
Stress Triggers. Stress is defined as a perceived inability to cope. By exploring what our personal triggers are, we can unravel from learned helplessness and gain self-mastery.
Upside of Stress. Explore how our nervous systems are wired to cope with certain amounts of stress. Find strength through harnessing stress. Explore a counterintuitive and little-known approach to transform stress into an advantage.
Reprogram Overwhelm. Too much for too long can leave us feeling flooded and unable to cope. Beliefs that we hold to be true about this further disrupt our natural coping mechanisms. Explore psychology and the use of opposites to instill a new belief system. You can cope.
Stepping Out. Cognitive problem-solving has its limits. Taking moments amidst overwhelm to gain perspective, gives room for new insight. Learn science-based micro-meditations that build neural plasticity.
Uninterrupted Core. Whilst our bodies, minds, and nervous systems can feel overwhelmed, there’s always part of our experience that is utterly at peace, in every moment. Discover the part of you that’s never stressed.
Pillar 3
Positive Intuition
Self Trust. Build a set of personal affirmations that are touchstones amidst moments of doubt and uncertainty. Create strong psychological foundations on which to build inner knowing and conviction.
Objective Thinking. Learn to manage thoughts and break thinking down into neutral, negative, positive, and instructive. By taking perspective on the thinking mind, learn to gain distance and choose response over reactivity.
Interrupting Self-doubt. Negative thinking and deep-rooted beliefs can interrupt our access to self-trust. Unlock core beliefs through a 5 step system of personal inquiry.
Emotional Intelligence. Emotions fall into two camps, positive and negative, yet all emotions are instructive. Learn to listen to and distill the wisdom from feelings and move from overwhelm to integrity.
Intuitive Knowing. Our rational mind makes up - at best - 10% of our mental processing. Accessing deeper knowing comes from relaxing our cognitive processes and getting in touch with this huge information storehouse, that lies just beyond the surface of thought. Trust in your hunches!
Pillar 4
Pathways To Insight
Learn from the masters. Throughout history, both creative and scientific geniuses have consistently exploited contemplative traditions to gain insight and creativity. Find out who, and how.
The Best-kept Secret About Genius. Our minds produce different bio-rhythms depending on our state: waking, sleeping, and dreaming. The hypnogogic state bridges all of these. Learn how to quickly access this and upgrade your genius.
Hypnogogic Phenomenon. Our bodies and minds produce certain responses to this state, such as waking dreams, images, sounds, and bodily reactions. Learn which is friend and foe, and how to distill insight.
Developing Insights: Tricks and tips on deepening moments of insight and keeping your ‘aha moments’ close, so you can build and foster them into big ideas.
Piller 5
Steadfast Fortitude
Discover your Superpower. The same recognition lives at the heart of every contemplative tradition - our deepest experience is untroubled, calm, quiet and at ease - in every moment. Accessing this can be challenging. Learn simple yet profound ‘pointing out’ instructions that take you immediately and effortlessly to this deep well-spring of stillness.
Beyond Activity. Learn how you don’t always need to take action to be at peace. Having built your way to resilience and deeper creativity, you now know how to ‘do this’ without doing anything at all. Set yourself free of technique for the deepest meditative experience.
Open Hand. Let go of acquiring a certain ‘state’, in order to discover it. By losing expectations and surrendering all outcomes, paradoxical deep rest arrives.
You Don’t Need to Know! Give up knowing and figuring anything out. By letting go of thinking and developing ‘not knowing’, return to innocence and be fresh and present.
Regaining Time. By releasing the need to be anywhere: the past, the future, or the ‘now’, discover a super-charged meditation practice that’s easy and effortless. Leave all those other ‘meditators’ behind!
No Self. The most constant and perennial thought is that of ourselves. Yet, it is only a thought. Deep moments of meditation can spontaneously arise as we challenge and go beyond this narrative and discover our true selves as free of any self-talk and identity.
There are so many resilience and well-being programmes out there, why would I choose this one?
A quick google will suffice to show you that there is a huge amount of content relating to well-being and managing burnout out there. You could spend some time on YouTube, download a meditation app, read a book, or see a therapist or coach - so why take this programme in particular?
I have worked in the well-being industry for 2 decades. Recently, I’ve spent time looking at the various offers out there and a lot of its focus is on the more stoic side of resilience - from cold showers to workouts - moving you toward taking on more. But what happens when there’s no more room to work harder?
This programme focuses on building capacity for being malleable in the face of challenge - being able to bend, but not break. It’s not about toughness in its traditional sense, but about how vulnerability is its own strength. By recognising the need to stop, rest, reflect, and find centre again, we uncover something much more lasting and whole.
Of the content that’s out there that focuses on this softer side of Resilience, 99% of it is self-paced and D.I.Y (do it yourself). This has limited value. It will work just great if you have time for a meandering, 10-year journey to slowly build your understanding but you’re likely reading this because you’re in - or at least close to - crisis. This is where having a coach to support you and guide you is not just a bonus, but essential.
Most importantly, I’ve come to realise that for the most pernicious problems, one way of working is not enough. We need tools that we can use on our own, have one-to-one support, and to be amongst peers who are facing similar challenges to ourselves. This helps to:
Offer a reflective mirror for our biggest conundrums, getting us over our own natural blindspots
Strike a balance between helping and supporting ourselves and also being supported
Come to, and be empowered by, our own understanding whilst being fast-tracked along the way
Get instant support from the pre-recorded content and practices are there at your fingertips
Give you a structure & process to the programme content that negates confusion and offers a clear path to recovery
What’s on offer here is all of these different ways of working, in one place.
Coaching experience, helping you to unravel your own ball of wool.
Therapeutic training to get to those deeper underlying challenges.
Mentoring experience to fast track you through the rest practices the program offers you.
Plus 20 years of experience in applying these well-being practices: from burnt-out A-list celebrities all the way to trauma survivors.
There’s nothing we can’t work through together, no matter how big you feel it is or how tangled up in the hedge you feel you are. Together, we’ve got this.
