Description

In Episode 9 of The Reset, Shaun answers a simple but powerful question:

“How would you lose 5 kilos without going to the gym?”

Instead of offering a meal plan, strict protocol, or extreme program, this episode focuses on something deeper:

Weight loss is not about punishment.
It’s about alignment.

Before changing your body, you have to understand your stress, your priorities, and your relationship with yourself.

Key Themes

• Why the number on the scale doesn’t define you
• Your “relationship with gravity” reframed
• Stress buckets and priority alignment
• Awareness before action
• Why most people skip the uncomfortable internal work
• Movement as embodiment
• Letting the body lead instead of the mind enslaving it

Core Insight

“The number on the scale is just your relationship with gravity.”

Weight becomes emotional when we attach identity to it.

Detach meaning.
Create awareness.
Then align action.

The 3-Step Reset

1️⃣ Remove Identity From the Scale

It’s data. Not definition.

2️⃣ Audit Your Stress

Identify 3–4 stress categories in your life.
Rate them 1–10.
Notice which one is draining the most energy.

Clarity creates space.

3️⃣ Move and Nourish Without Obsession

• Don’t join a gym if you hate it
• Start moving in ways that feel good
• Don’t label food as good or bad
• Be present while eating
• Allow feeling good instead of forcing results

Weight loss becomes easier when your nervous system isn’t overloaded.

Closing Reflection

If you feel stuck, maybe the lesson isn’t “try harder.”

Maybe it’s:

Slow down.
Align priorities.
Move your body.
Let your mind become a servant — not the master.

Enjoy the process of feeling good.

The rest follows.
