What if you could interrupt stress in less than a minute — and actually rewire your brain in the process?

In this solo episode of the Emotional Longevity Podcast, Dr. Elisha Goldstein shares one of the most powerful tools from his upcoming book Tiny Shifts — the 4R Reset. It's a practical, science-backed method to pause, reset your nervous system, and respond to life's stressful moments with clarity instead of reactivity.

Because stress isn't just psychological. It's physiological — and your nervous system responds faster than your thinking mind ever can. This episode gives you a real-time reset you can use anywhere, anytime.


🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:


✅ Why your brain reacts before you can think — and why that's not your fault 
✅ Step 1 — Recognize: How naming your internal state shifts brain activity instantly 
✅ Step 2 — Release: How to soften your physiology before trying to think your way calm 
✅ Step 3 — Refocus: The one question that unlocks your natural intelligence 
✅ Step 4 — Reinforce: Why this is the step most people skip — and why it matters most 
✅ How tiny moments, repeated gently, build lasting emotional resilience
