Summer has a script: the trips you should be taking, the body you should have by now, the effortless fun everyone else appears to be having. The Summer Reset Pack is a free, printable 7-page PDF for the moments that script gets loud — the scroll that makes your week feel small, the dressing-room verdict, the Sunday you "wasted" by resting. No email, no sign-up. Just the PDF.

Five printable worksheets: the comparison spiral, the dressing-room reframe, the "perfect plans" log — no email, just the PDF.

What's inside the pack
- The summer inner-critic cheat sheet. The four voices that get louder when the days get longer — the Perfectionist, the Comparer, the Minimizer, and the Guilt-Tripper — each with the one question that defuses it. Not sure which is yours? The free 2-minute inner critic quiz scores you across all four.
- The comparison-spiral worksheet. For the post that makes a perfectly decent summer feel suddenly behind: write the verdict down, check it against what you actually know, and rewrite it as a fair sentence.
- The dressing-room reframe. A realist / growth / compassionate worksheet for the body thought that hits in the fitting room or the group photo.
- The "perfect summer plans" log. Anticipatory anxiety makes predictions — this log makes it show its work, with a "still true tomorrow?" column that does the arguing for you.
- The post-event decompress page. For the replay loop after the barbecue or the group trip: evidence-check the verdict, then write one sentence of permission to close the tab.
Who it's for
Anyone whose summer feels like a performance review. If your plans make you more anxious than excited, our guide to summer plans anxiety explains why — and if the dread lives in the dressing room, start with why "summer body" anxiety isn't about your body. The pack is the printable version of both fixes. It's mental first aid, not therapy, and it doesn't replace professional support.
Send it to someone
The pack is free to copy, print, and forward — that's the point. If someone came to mind while you read this page (the friend who apologizes for resting, the one who calls every good weekend "nothing special"), the button below puts it in their hands in one tap.

What's inside the pack?
+
A cheat sheet of the four summer inner critics (the Perfectionist, the Comparer, the Minimizer, and the Guilt-Tripper) with one defusing question each, a comparison-spiral worksheet, a dressing-room body-thought reframe, a "perfect summer plans" thought log with a still-true-tomorrow column, and a post-event decompress page for the replay-and-guilt loop.
