Step 4: Threshold Moment

Purpose

Connect inside → outside

What to do:

• Step outside (porch, driveway, balcony)
• No phone if possible
• Just stand, breathe, look around

This is the bridge. Don't skip it.

Why this matters

This simple act is profound. You're creating a tangible marker between "inside" (your home, your nervous system's safe space) and "outside" (the world). It's a moment of transition that actually interrupts your nervous system in the best way—it gives you a pause before you step into your day.
