Reset Series
Mapping the Self. Mastering the Connection. Activating the Objective.
When life becomes busy, it is easy to lose perspective. We can get caught in the tiny details, then swing into overwhelm about the bigger picture. Over time, this can pull us away from the values, purpose and personal objectives that help us feel grounded, clear and connected.
The Reset Series helps participants bridge the gap between internal awareness and
external action. Through modern wellbeing practices, embodied learning, guided
reflection and yogic philosophy, the series creates space to observe your actions,
understand your patterns and reconnect with what genuinely matters.
Using the VSBA Framework — Values, Strengths, Behaviours and Actions — along with several other Positive Mentor researched frameworks, you will map the five core pillars of your life and reconnect with your personal mission and objective for each. This becomes a practical blueprint for living and working with more clarity, autonomy, belonging and competence.
The Reset Series - Program Overview
The Reset Series was originally designed for teachers, but it has also supported educators, carers, learning aides, creatives and people navigating career change.
Using the VSBA Framework (Values, Strengths, Behaviours, Actions) participants explore how their inner patterns shape the way they respond to stress, challenge and transition. Through embodied learning, wellbeing practices, ancient philosophy with modern psychological graming and leveraging the Telescope Lens Model (TLM), participants map the five core areas of life: Work, Family, Social/Community, Study and Self.
This process helps reveal where the individual is genuinely moving towards goals and where misalignment may be keeping them stuck and in familiar patterns. It's the opportunity to rest, reflect, re-examine and reset so you can 'zoom out' and see where you are and what you're doing to help or hinder the journey to get where you truly want to be.
By the end of the series, participants begin to understand their Psychological DNA and use it as a practical blueprint for human agency — building greater autonomy, belonging and competence in the way they live, work and relate.

I think the entire program has been great and brought me lots of positive change. Discussing subjects with someone who expresses genuine care and consideration has made me feel much better about my work.
