Your body processes 1 billion bits of sensory data per second while your conscious mind handles only 10 bits, forcing it to react before you think. A text from your boss triggers your gut to perceive danger and your heart to race before you even realize what's happening. The speaker offers a 7-Minute Reset technique to interrupt this automatic reflex.

Chapters

Your boss texts you, "Can I see you at 5 PM?" Your heart immediately races. That's not anxiety, that's programming. Your body receives 1 billion bits of sensory data per second. In your conscious mind, it's only able to process about 10 bits. That's 100 million times less. So your body makes more decisions for you and automatically in less than 5 seconds before you're even aware there was a choice. So when the boss says, "5 PM," your gut reads danger. Your heart races, your mind scrambles for reasons why, all in 5 seconds. Learn to interrupt that reflex this Saturday. 7 Minute Reset. Link is in the bio.
