A micro‑protocol that lowers immediate reactivity using the 90‑second pattern (slow exhale, posture shift, gaze break) and a nightly downshift ritual.


Why it matters:

  • Shrinks conflict duration and intensity

  • Improves meeting tone and decision clarity

  • Teaches leaders to regulate before responding
    How to measure: Pauses before reacting; conflict length; tone ratings
    Used in:
    Resolve Conflict, Reactivity Reset Cohort

    Also called: Rapid down‑regulation, 90‑second reset
