Everything about the world we live in is designed to stress us out.
Stress was a global pandemic well before COVID-19. Our society is more stressed than ever with long working hours and an always-on lifestyle, resulting in severe consequences. Managing stress levels is critical for improving long-term health and well-being.
Keeping calm when there is SOOO much pressure is hard!
How often do you feel like you’re constantly running a marathon in your mind? Do you have to too much going on? Is your life constantly on auto-pilot?
Life is hectic and it’s tough to disconnect from work, leaving you feeling grumpy, overwhelmed and impatient. In idle moments, you find yourself scrolling and comparing yourself to others, leading to irritation, guilt and FOMO.
To escape, you might turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms like drinking or binging Netflix. But you know that this is not a sustainable solution. There is a better way to manage your stress and improve your overall well-being.
"The challenge was so calming and encouraging. The positive feedback from Melissa and others gave me strength and inspiration. When I paused and made time for a break it gave me the opportunity to take a step back and stay focused at my task on hand.”

Micro mindful doodling videos for your everyday practice
Refresh is different from other programs that overload you with video content. We prioritize simplicity and practicality. Each day, you’ll learn a new concept and apply it right away during your “Doodle Break.” Our program prioritizes giving your mind the necessary space to function at its best, delivering actual results instead of mere busyness.

Learning on your own is possible, but learning from a professional is incomparable. Our program offers personalized feedback and an opportunity to understand an expert’s thought process and approach. The cherry on top? You get to have a one-on-one experience with a master mindfulness coach every week!
Collaboration and support among peers

With this supportive group, loneliness will be a thing of the past.
Competitions & prizes
Tired of seeing everything as a chore? Add some excitement with friendly competition! Complete challenges, earn points, and win top secret, amazing prizes. But remember, this is not a competition against others, but against yourself. Our program is not about adding more stress to your day. It’s about tracking your own progress and accomplishments.

FAQ
Questions we’re most often asked.
This is a 30-day online interactive experience to help you build a habit to promote mindfulness, creativity and calm, to Feel Better. Work Better. Live better.
The challenge uses principles of habit formation, positive psychology and gamification to simultaneously educate, inspire, motivate, and focus your efforts to taking a mindfulness action every day.
There are multiple pieces to the challenge, most of which take longer to explain than to do. They include:
Daily Inspiration: You read an inspirational quote.
Daily Intention: After focusing your intention on the core mindfulness principles of the challenge, you state what you intend to do that day to practice making creative mindfulness a habit.
Wall of Wins: Ideally at the end each day, you write and share some of your wins publicly with the rest of the challenge community. You can support and connect with other participants through comments and high-fives.
Coach’s Corner: Three times a week, you receive short (less than 90 seconds) videos on a single Doodle Breaks lesson for you to reflect on and apply in your daily actions.
Weekly Challenge: At the beginning of the week you will receive a short video, to provide you with direction on how to effectively take a Doodle Break. This builds your foundation for making creative mindfulness a habit.
Gratitude: Once a day, you publicly share something you are grateful for. You can also read other’s gratitude statements.
Daily Announcement: This is is where you will find all your Doodle Breaks – a self-guided video for you to follow. Each day you will receive a different break focusing on a different topic; sleep, creativity, stress, focus, etc.
The challenge leader reads through all the wall of wins and offers daily encouragement and support. In addition, participants can also provide encouragement and coaching through the wall of wins and gratitudes.
For each action listed above, you earn points. At the end of the challenge, every 100 points earned is converted into a raffle ticket. We will raffle our Doodle Breaks Notepad during our Recognition Ceremony. We are not encouraging competition against each other, as these points are aligned with personal accomplishments and wins. Our goal is to have you create your own creative mindfulness practice and we are giving you the tools to do that. Completion of each part builds this habit and mental muscle. Use the points as a benchmark for yourself!
You can decide how much or how little of your work you share. Do know that one of the biggest benefits that previous participants have found is how powerful the shared communal aspect of going through this challenge with other like-minded aspiring people. Making your wins and gratitude public will likely increase the learning impact on you.
The platform and community is available for you to be as involved as you wish. Ideally, you’d set your intentions in the morning and reflect on your wins in the evening. Practice your Doodle Break when it fits best with your needs. However, if your schedule is such that you can only log on once a day, you’re welcome to use the platform in the way that will best serve your own development needs. If you “miss” a day or more, you’re welcome to re-connect at any point. Earlier content will still be available for you to review. In order to get the best results we encourage you to login in everyday.
