Primal Reset Program Mini

Welcome to Module 1

We will begin the journey of reconnecting with your body’s. natural energy systems.

In this section, you’ll discover how to restore vitality by syncing with Earth’s rhythms, through light, grounding, and natural stressors.

Lesson 1A

Reclaiming Primal Energy

You’re not tired, you’re disconnected. Discover how morning light, grounding, and breath are the keys to awakening your body’s ancient energy systems. 

Lesson 1A

Summary

You’re not fatigued - you’re disconnected. This session reframes modern exhaustion as a signal of separation from the Earth’s energy blueprint. 

Lesson 1A

Takeaways

Mitochondria respond directly to environmental inputs like light, cold, and grounding.

Early-Onset Mitochondrial Dysfunction (EOMD) is a root cause of modern fatigue.

Small, consistent Earth rituals restore vitality by reconnecting us with ancestral energy sources.

Lesson 1A

Action Steps

Get natural morning sunlight on your skin and eyes for 5–10 minutes

Walk barefoot on grass, dirt, or concrete—or use a grounding mat indoors

Embrace environmental contrast: try cold exposure or feel the wind on your face

Begin a consistent sleep-wake rhythm to support mitochondrial cycles

Create an “Earth altar” or corner with natural objects as daily visual anchors

Lesson 1A

Your energy is not outside you. It’s already in you. In your breath. In your cells. In your connection to the living world.

— Dr. Kavin Mistry

Lesson 1B

Syncing with the Sun

Your body runs on sunlight. Learn how aligning your day with circadian rhythms can reset your hormones, sleep, and energy flow. 

Lesson 1B

Summary

This session introduces the foundation of the Primal Reset Program: aligning your daily rhythm with the natural light-dark cycle. Rather than starting with diet or fitness, the lesson begins with light - because your body is governed by a 24-hour biological schedule called the circadian rhythm.

Lesson 1B

Takeaways

Your body contains molecular clocks in nearly every cell, all tuned by light.

Morning sunlight, midday eating, and screen-free evenings support hormonal and mitochondrial health.

Circadian misalignment - what the lesson calls "social jet lag" - contributes to fatigue, weight gain, poor sleep, and early aging.

Lesson 1B

Action Steps

Step outside within 30 minutes of waking to receive natural light (no sunglasses).

Eat your largest meals during the daylight window, ideally between 12–2pm.

Dim lights and avoid screens 1–2 hours before bed; step outside to see the sunset.

Set up rhythm anchors at home: morning light exposure, candlelight or red bulbs at night.

Create a tech-free sacred hour daily to support nervous system recalibration.

Lesson 1B

When you live against the sun, you live against your biology.

— Dr. Kavin Mistry

    Lesson 1C

    Green Therapy

    What surrounds you, shapes you. This lesson reveals how nature - soil, trees, and fresh air, can restore immunity, clarity, and vitality. 

    Lesson 1C

    Summary

    This session explores how your environment shapes your biology. Fatigue, stress, and inflammation may not be personal failings - they might be signs that your space has forgotten how to heal. 

    Lesson 1C

    Takeaways

    Forest exposure reduces cortisol, boosts immunity, and activates the parasympathetic system.

    Negative ions from natural air improve mitochondrial function, mood, and sleep.

    Soil microbes enhance gut health, emotional resilience, and immune function.

    Lesson 1C

    Action Steps

    Place one living plant where you spend the most time.

    Open windows daily for airflow and nature scents.

    Build a grounding zone with a mat, plant, or Earth-toned item.

    Touch soil weekly through gardening, composting, or barefoot walks.

    Create a nature-first view - position something natural in your daily line of sight.

    Lesson 1C

    You don’t need a forest retreat. You need a space that remembers Earth.

    — Dr. Kavin Mistry
