Do you ever feel like you’ve “lost it” or “fallen off track”? That binary thinking keeps you stuck in shame and self-judgment. In this Quick Bite, Alyssia Sheikh shares a powerful mindfulness reframe—shifting from “I’m lost” to “I’ve disconnected.” Because if you’ve disconnected, you can always reconnect.
Drawing on her own journey with perfectionism and disordered patterns of “on/off” thinking, Alyssia reveals how language shapes our emotions, our motivation, and our capacity to return to presence. Backed by research on cognitive reframing and self-compassion, this short episode reminds you that awareness is always available—no matter how long you’ve been away. Includes a bonus sound-anchored meditation to help you practice coming home to yourself.

✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How “lost” language fuels all-or-nothing thinking and shame
- The simple word swap that creates fluidity and self-compassion
- Why your brain loves binaries (and how to break them)
- The science of cognitive reframing and why language shapes emotion
- A guided practice to help you reconnect right now
???? Reflection: Where in your life do you say you’re “off track” or “lost”? Try replacing that with “I’ve disconnected.” Notice how your body softens when you do.
