Your life can be 10% easier.
We'll teach you how.
We know what it’s like to want something -- anything -- to be easier.
That’s why we created Unlock Easier & Make It Your Own.
What is Unlock Easier & Make It Your Own?
Living your life is a journey that includes time spent at innumerable destinations. Think about each moment from your first breath to your last. You were someplace during each of those moments. You are someplace right now, and you’ll be someplace else soon.
During some parts of the journey, you have specially prepared and packed. During other parts of the journey, you’ve got your wits and what’s in your pockets.
You move through each part of the journey using all kinds of conveyances – crawling, walking, running, skipping, riding a bike, roller skating, climbing, sledding, flying, driving, boating, riding a train -- just to name a few.
Some of the rides are easy, and some are difficult. Some are thrilling. Some are boring. Some you look forward to. Some you dread. Some surprise you. Some disappoint you.
​
Sometimes, you travel solo. Sometimes, you travel with others. Sometimes the “others” are people you know, and sometimes they’re people you don’t. Sometimes the journey is easier to share, and sometimes, it’s harder.
None of us know how long our journey will last or exactly what’s going to happen along the way.
There are skills and practices that can make every part of the ride easier. We know because we’ve been on our own rides that went from “kinda uncomfortable” to Category 3 hurricane in a matter of moments. And much like Moira telling David to “fold in the cheese,” the people around us offered pithy advice that was similarly unclear and unhelpful.
​
That’s why we developed Unlock Easier & Make It Your Own to share what we've learned over the past decade. You'll get real coping skills, with clear instructions and space to practice them, until you've made them work just right for you.​​​​​
What people are saying...
"I did the program at work each morning, and it was nice to focus on my well-being for a few short minutes before diving into other people's problems."
