Program · 21 evenings
Repair
Step out of the same fight, and find the way back.
- For when
- The same arguments keep coming back, or an old hurt still sits between you.
- What it aims for
- To interrupt the loop a little earlier and practise finding the way back after things go wrong.
- How you'll know
- How close you feel before and after each experiment, and a weekly check-in on conflict and old hurt.
Works even if only you take part. Pause or skip any evening, no penalty.

Every experiment shows its evidence in plain words and a “not right for now if…” note. If anything suggests you may be unsafe, the program pauses and support comes first. Evidence-informed self-help, not therapy.
