Befriending the Freeze

A companion for when work feels impossible

A digital workbook created lovingly by Dr Sugandh Dixit

There are moments at work when the body says no before the mind can act. A quiet stillness takes over, and beginning feels out of reach. This isn’t laziness or failure. It’s the freeze response. Befriending the Freeze is not a manual to fix you, nor a push toward endless productivity. It is a gentle companion — a place to land when work feels impossible.

What you’ll get

  • ✺

    Warm invitations to understand your freeze with kindness rather than judgment.

  • ✺

    Body-based practice videos — short, guided movements and grounding techniques to help your body feel safe enough to begin again.

  • ✺

    Reflections and writing prompts — soft spaces to notice your patterns, meet yourself with compassion, and create your own “freeze toolkit.”

  • ✺

    Gentle rituals for beginning, pausing, and returning to work without force.

This workbook whispers: You are not broken. You are protecting yourself the only way you knew how. And now, slowly, you can return — one breath, one gesture, one word at a time.

For anyone who has ever gone blank before a task, carried shame about “not doing enough,” or longed to find their rhythm again — this workbook helps transform freeze from an enemy into a teacher, and work from a battlefield into a place where safety, presence, and possibility can grow.

The workbook is priced at INR600.
