About The Book "Release. Return. Reside."

ABOUT THE BOOK

Millions of people are silently falling apart, not because they’re weak, but because they’re doing everything for everyone except themselves.

They’re over-functioning, overthinking, over-giving, people-pleasing, rescuing coworkers, fixing every crisis, and absorbing stress that was never theirs to carry.

If you’re exhausted from trying to be the strong one, the helpful one, the reliable one, if burnout, toxic colleagues, self-doubt, and constant pressure have become your “normal”, this book is for you.

Release. Return. Reside. gives you the 3R Principle: a simple, practical, no-fluff framework to help you finally put down what’s been draining you, come back to yourself, and feel grounded and safe in your own life again.

If even one line of this feels like your life, don’t wait another year to feel better.

WHAT EALY REVIEWER SAY ABOUT US?

Early Testimonies

"This book felt like someone finally put words to everything I’ve been carrying for years. I didn’t even realize how much I was living in survival mode until I saw myself on every page. The 3R Principle gave me a way to breathe again—literally. I started saying no without guilt and resting without shame. My kids get a calmer version of me now, and I feel like I’m coming home to myself."

Sarah38, Burned-Out Working Mom

"I’ve read dozens of self-help books, but this one hit differently. It didn’t feel preachy or abstract. It felt real. As someone who's spent years in high-stress leadership roles, I didn't realize how much I was over-functioning just to feel 'enough.' This book helped me recognize the emotional loops I was trapped in—and gave me practical tools to get out. It’s not just a book; it’s a reset button."

Marcus44, Corporate Executive

"I picked up this book during a really messy time in my life. I was lost after a breakup, stuck in self-doubt, and trying to please everyone but myself. Doctor Stik’s words felt like a friend sitting next to me saying, 'You’re not crazy, you’re just exhausted.' The gentle questions and practices helped me feel safe in my own body again. I’m not 'healed,' but I finally feel like I’m healing."

Nhi26, Recently Heartbroken and Rebuilding

"Even as someone who teaches mindfulness, I didn’t realize I was still performing for love in subtle ways. This book opened my eyes to emotional loops I thought I’d already worked through. I’ve started integrating the 3R Principle into my daily practice—and even into my classes. The coloring pages are a beautiful addition too. It’s medicine for the soul, disguised as a gentle book."
