The Salience Method

Phase I

Reset

Relax and observe your mind honestly and without judgment. Notice what captures your attention.

Phase II

Release

Release the Five DRAINs—Destructive habits, Reactive impulses, Attachments, Intense emotions, and Negative thought loops—so they no longer hijack your focus and energy.
