What if your stress isn't just about your workload?

You don't want to look weak, so you take on every task

You put yourself down, even though you achieve more than most

Under pressure you get irritable, and the people closest to you feel it

A woman presses against the walls of a cramped box, as if there were no room for her.

Are you stuck in this vicious cycle?

  1. High standards

  2. Pushing harder

  3. Pressure

  4. Stress

  5. Standards not met

  6. “I have to do better”

↺ and it all starts again

Change the patterns behind stress, not just how you cope with it

Instead of only helping you calm down when stress hits, the program helps you understand and change the behaviors and beliefs that keep creating it

  • Break the perfectionism cycle

    Notice when high standards turn into pressure, and learn to handle them differently

  • Set boundaries without guilt

    Practice saying no, expressing your needs and sitting with the discomfort that comes with it

  • Separate self-worth from performance

    Learn to deal with mistakes and setbacks without seeing them as a verdict on who you are

  • Handle anger before it hits your loved ones

    Recognize your triggers, create a pause before you react and end the stress-and-conflict cycle

The method behind it

The program is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a modern form of behavioral therapy.

  • Change patterns instead of just reacting

    ACT helps you change unhelpful behavior patterns and deal more flexibly with difficult thoughts and feelings.

  • Exercises for your everyday life

    You learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, and still do what matters to you.

  • Scientifically studied

    The effectiveness of ACT for stress, anxiety and low mood has been shown in numerous studies.

What if stress doesn't have to disappear completely for you to feel better?

  • You still have big goals and ambitions
  • Doing things well still matters to you
  • You still have difficult days sometimes

but …

  • You no longer say yes automatically
  • You no longer automatically push harder
  • You no longer criticize yourself when the pressure builds

You handle pressure differently, and less stress builds up
