Cognitive reset
A cognitive reset is a short, intentional break from information or emotional overload that helps regain attentional clarity.
Definition
Cognitive reset is a practical concept, not a formal diagnosis. It may involve changing stimuli, movement, breathing, sleep, silence, leaving the screen or writing down thoughts on paper. Its goal is not to escape from the problem, but to reduce the overload so that you can return to it with better regulation.
