Your head feels like a radio between stations—lots of crackle, not much signal. Tame the Static gives you a straightforward daily plan to cut the interference and dial in clarity. In short, doable sessions you’ll learn how to spot loops early, separate facts from fear, and redirect attention on command. The method blends CBT micro-practices, cognitive defusion, and attention training into a simple cadence you can actually keep.
Inside you’ll use a 2‑minute “label and let go” drill, a friction‑free thought record, a worry window that contains what-if spirals, anchor phrases for high‑stress moments, and a nightly reset that clears mental residue before sleep. Real‑life scripts help you handle triggers at work, in relationships, and during big decisions—without white‑knuckling your way through the day.
No jargon. No overwhelm. Just a practical, supportive rhythm that replaces mental noise with steady focus. If you’re ready to trade static for signal, open to page one and begin.
