The 7-Day Meditation Reset

Let’s Talk About Your Experience: I want you to know something important: if you’ve been struggling to meditate consistently… you are absolutely not alone. It is one of the most common complaints meditators have.

Meditation can be hard. I struggled with meditation for decades. I can’t even begin to calculate the number of times I woke up with my chin against my chest. (Now I know what they mean when they talk about “contemplating your navel.”)

Back then, I’d sit down with the best of intentions. “Maybe this time my mind will cooperate.” But within half a minute, the mind is replaying yesterday’s argument or practising a conversation that hasn’t happened yet. It worries about the future, or dwells on the past, then suddenly you remember you are supposed to be meditating. You check the time, and you can’t believe it. Only a few minutes have passed. The clock seems to be running at half-speed.

The Inner Tug-of-War Then the voices start. One part of the mind says, “This is hopeless.” Another snaps back, “Don’t be ridiculous, you can’t give up!” Then cynicism creeps in: “You’re just going to fall asleep anyway. Why don’t you just go back to bed.”

If that sounds familiar… don’t worry! This inner tug-of-war is a phase most meditators experience, but it needn’t last forever.

You struggle for the same reason I used to. It isn’t a lack of discipline; it’s because you are relying on discipline. Discipline carries the unpleasant connotation of “having to do things you don’t want to.” The moment your mind hears the word “discipline”, resistance is triggered. The whole thing turns into a chore.

A Change of Approach: People don’t struggle because they’re “bad” at meditating. They struggle because of their approach, which manifests as 2 main problems:

1. They believe they have to fight against their own mind
2. They attempt to improve by focusing on and trying to eliminate their failures.

This is a crippling mistake for a meditator. You are trying to raise your vibrations, but at the same time you are lowering them by constantly criticising yourself. It is like trying to drive a car with one foot on the brake pedal.

Imagine how miserable a child would become if you only ever criticised them and forced them to do tasks they hated. How much damage would that do to their self-esteem, their optimism, their positivity? You would have to be pretty unfeeling to treat them that way – yet you treat yourself that way. What is that doing to your own inner child?

A negative approach can never lead to positive results. We need to find a way to change that approach ASAP -and you will find that way in module 1 of the course.

The Quantity Brings Quality Myth: For years, I was what I call a “long-term cruiser.” I thought putting in the hours was the answer, and I really did put in the hours. Two and a half hours a day, for 53 years and counting – more than 45,000 hours. It was not a waste of time – far from it – but my approach was a good deal less than ideal, and it took me half a century to realise it. The good news is, it won’t take you half a century, because I finally found a better way. I’ve already done the heavy lifting for you.

The Next Step: Everything you’ve read so far is about seeing why the traditional approach doesn’t work. Understanding why things don’t work is valuable only if it leads to positive change, and positive change comes from:

1. Adopting a positive approach.
2. Taking action based on your new, positive approach.

I love what Zig Ziglar famously said: “Your altitude depends upon your attitude, not your aptitude.” This is even more true for meditation, and I will explain why:

Meditation is a process of raising your vibrational frequency. The higher you raise your frequency, the more you experience Love, Joy, Peace, Bliss, Wisdom, Healing and all of that good stuff. But what very few teach, is that it works the other way around too. The higher the frequency you have when you start meditating, the easier and more enjoyable your meditation becomes.

Attitude is the first step towards better meditation. With the right attitude and nothing else, your entire experience of meditation will be lighter, more pleasant, more rewarding.

Here is a mundane example of how attitude works. Imagine 2 employees: employee A comes to work every day with a positive approach. They’re always helpful, always cheerful’ always looking for ways to make a meaningful contribution. Employee B is a clock-watcher. They are the last to arrive; the first to take a break, the first out of the door at the end of the day. They always find fault and look for things to complain about. Their only aim is to make it through the day so they can go home and relax. Now ask yourself this:

• Who enjoys their job more, employee A or employee B?
• Who is going to get paid more?
• Who is more likely to be promoted?

It is not all that different in meditation. You get out what you put in. Putting in time is not enough. Quantity is less important than quality. The more you experience quality, the more you enjoy meditation. It is a perfect win/win equation, and it all starts with ATTITUDE.

Is there an EASY way to change your attitude towards meditation for the better? I don’t know what you may have tried, but in my experience, the answer is the 7-Day Meditation Reset. Whether you are a rank beginner or a long-time practitioner, it could just take you to the next level.

Module 1 of the 7-Day Meditation Reset is dedicated to reframing your entire approach. The shift it teaches is the best way I have come across in my 50 years on the path to unlock better quality, which leads to more enjoyment, and that makes it much easier to be consistent. It initiates a POSITIVE CYCLE.

To help you move into the next stage of your journey, I’m offering module 1 as a standalone module, for a special introductory price of $37 (normal price $67)

Attitude is the first step, but not the last. In the full system (valued at $197), I also walk you through a stupidly easy way of focusing your attention more acutely than you ever have before. (The full course will be offered to you at a very special price during checkout)

But first things first. Most people fail in meditation because they try to jump straight into deep focus from the wrong starting point. I made that mistake for decades before I realised what I was missing out on. The shift I will show you is the same shift I finally hit on that elevated my practice to the next level.

I want as many people as possible to experience this, even those who can’t afford the full course, which is why I’ve made this foundational module available on its own.

To be clear: module 1 isn’t just a “teaser” for the full course. I have designed it to be a complete experience that stands on its own. Inside it, I provide the key that turns meditation from a source of struggle into a source of joy—a simple shift that can fundamentally change the way you practice for the rest of your life.

I sometimes look back on my half-century of struggle and wonder, “If only I had known about this right from the start… where could I have reached by now?” But then I realise that those decades were not wasted. They brought me the experience I needed to simplify and streamline the path for you. That is no small thing. Contributing to the spiritual progress of others is a priceless privilege.

As priceless as improving your meditation is to you personally, there is an even deeper reason to do this. I truly believe that meditation is a service—not just to yourself, but to the entire human race – and boy, do they need it!. When you raise your vibrational frequency, you radiate it out to the world without even being aware of it. Like ripples spreading out across a lake, you are literally changing the ‘frequency’ of the planet little by little every time you meditate.

Let’s be honest with you. I was stubborn. I was taught a particular way and believed fullt that it was the only way for me. I tried sticking to it faithfully for 50 years, until I became so frustrated that I simply HAD to find a better way. I believe it was that motivation that finally brought me this method. Do you want to do that too? Work in frustration for decades until something has to give? You can, but why would you?

I have done the hard yards for you. I have not only been given the process, I have put in the work required to refine and streamline it so it can work for anybody. Why waste your time trying to reinvent the wheel? Why do it the hard way when we can do it together? I am pretty sure you do want to improve your meditation. Why else would be reading this now? So why not do it properly?

If creating a more positive approach to your meditation makes sense to you, you are in the right place. I invite you to join us. Take action now. Let’s smooth out your path, lighten your load, and travel this journey together.

You’ve already taken the first step: you listened to your inner prompting; you read this introduction. If what you are reading here resonates within you, that is a sure sign that this is right for you. Now, let’s turn meditation from a chore you “should” do into a source of Joy and Peace; something you actually look forward to. What could be more valuable than that?

Instant access. Start straight away. No waiting for emails.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need meditation experience?

A: Not at all. This works whether you’re a complete beginner or you’ve been meditating for years. In fact, it makes an ideal foundation for a complete beginner to build their practice. The principles work for everyone because they are straightforward and address fundamentals.

Q: How long are the sessions in Module 1?

A: Module 1 is a teaching module with 3 lessons that takes about 30-40 minutes to complete at your own pace — you can do it all at once or spread it across a few sittings. The insights in Module 1 are designed to shift your perspective immediately, and you can apply them to your very next meditation session. The actual practices are taught in the full bundle.

Q: What’s the difference between Module 1 and the full 7-Day Reset bundle?

A: Module 1 focuses entirely on reframing your approach — understanding the “why” behind the struggle and making the foundational shift in attitude that makes everything easier.
The full 7-Day Reset includes Module 1 plus 2 more modules. Module 2 has 5 additional lessons, and Module 3 provides the actual practices for my unique method for achieving genuine stillness. Think of Module 1 as opening the door, and the full course as walking you through it step by step.

Q: How is the 7-Day Meditation Reset different from meditation apps like Headspace or Calm?

A: Most meditation programs focus on technique: “Do this breathing pattern”, “Visualize this”, “Repeat this mantra”, or “Be the observer”. They expect that stillness will eventually emerge as a byproduct of their recommended practice, but is it doing so for you?
This is different in three important ways:

1. It changes your approach first. Before you even begin any technique, you’ll shift the lens through which you view meditation. When this changes, everything becomes lighter and more effective.
2. It teaches direct stillness. Rather than hoping stillness will happen eventually, you’ll learn a unique method for experiencing genuine stillness immediately. You can use this as a standalone practice or incorporate it into whatever you’re already doing.
3. It includes a simple commitment structure. The full course asks you to practice 10 minutes daily for 7 days. This focused week creates real momentum and gives the method a fair chance to work for you.

Q: What if I fall asleep during meditation?

A: This is incredibly common — it happened to me for years! Falling asleep can have many causes (especially insufficient sleep or a full tummy), but it’s often a sign you’re approaching meditation as a chore rather than something pleasurable.
Module 1 addresses the underlying patterns that lead to this. When you shift your approach, you’ll find yourself naturally more awake and present, without having to fight to stay conscious.

Q: What is the ideal daily meditation time for beginners?

A: Here’s one of the most important lessons I’ve learned over 50 years: five minutes of quality attention beats an hour of distracted sitting.
For the 7-Day Reset training, you’ll practice 10 minutes daily. But beyond that initial week, how you grow your practice is entirely up to you.
The most important thing is learning to focus properly. Even 10 minutes a day with the right approach serves you better than lengthy sessions of struggling with yourself. I recommend finding a comfortable balance — enough to build momentum without forcing yourself. As your practice deepens naturally, you can gradually extend your sessions. You can even add more sittings if that suits you.

Q: Is this based on a specific tradition or religion?

A: While I’ve drawn from various wisdom traditions over my 50+ years, this course is non-denominational and doesn’t require any specific beliefs or religious practices. The principles are spiritual but universal, and they work regardless of your background. I’m interested in what actually works, not what fits a particular doctrine.

Q: What if I don’t feel the “shift” right away?

A: Module 1 creates an immediate shift in perspective — moving from frustration and impatience to appreciation and ease. This is something you can notice right away and return to every time you meditate.
Deeper spiritual progress is more gradual. It is an evolution rather than a revolution. You might not notice day-to-day differences, but when you look back after a few weeks or months, the transformation becomes clear. Often, others notice it in you before you do.
One important note: approaching meditation expecting a particular shift is actually counterproductive. When you’re focused on what you think should happen, you miss what’s actually unfolding. Stay open and curious rather than hunting for specific results.

Q: Can I get a refund if it doesn’t work for me?

A: Yes. I offer a money-back guarantee. I want you to feel completely comfortable with your investment, and all students to be happy with the methods I teach.
To ensure you’ve given the method a fair trial, the refund window opens 30 days after purchase and remains open until day 45. This gives you a full month to practice the principles and two weeks to decide if it’s right for you. If you genuinely feel it hasn’t benefited you, simply email me during that window, and I’ll refund you in full.

Q: I’m really busy. Do I have to complete it in 7 days?

A: The “7-Day” refers to the structure of the full course, which has seven daily modules requiring 10 minutes of your time per day. It’s ideal to do this for 7 days in a row to build maximum momentum, but you can work through it at your own pace if you prefer — there are no deadlines. It’s available to you permanently once you enrol.
Module 1 contains 3 lessons. You can complete them in one sitting, or individually – however it works best for you.
The full bundle currently contains 4 more lessons, plus the 7 × 10-minute practices. Once again, you can approach this however you prefer.

Q: Will this help with anxiety/stress/sleep issues?

A: I can’t make medical claims, but I can tell you this: when people develop a genuine, sustainable meditation practice, the benefits naturally extend into their daily life. Many students report feeling calmer, sleeping better, and handling stress more gracefully — though individual results vary.
NB: If you’re dealing with serious mental health issues, please continue working with qualified professionals. Meditation can be very helpful, but it is not a replacement for professional care.

Q: What format is the course in?

A: The entire course is in written form, so that you can go at your own pace. I’ve deliberately kept it simple and accessible — no complicated platforms or apps required. You’ll get instant access to your entire course. There is no “drip-feeding” or assignment requirements. You can access all of it whenever you like.

Q: Can an advanced meditator benefit from the 7-day Meditation Reset?

A: Yes, even more so. This is specifically designed to help you take your practice to the next level, no matter where you are on the journey. I’m a perfect example — I tried everything I teach on myself first, and it revolutionised my practice – and this after meditating daily for over 50 years! In fact, advanced meditators often benefit most from this because they’re familiar with how their normal practice feels and can most easily notice when things feel different.
If you’ve been practising for years but haven’t made as much progress as you’d hoped, or you’ve hit a plateau, or meditation has started to feel mechanical… this could be exactly what you need.

Q: Can I share this with my partner/meditation group?

A: I fully understand and sympathise with wanting to share something valuable with people you care about. I encourage you to invite them to purchase their own membership. This helps me keep the course affordable and to continue creating content.
Technically, the course is password-protected and tied to your individual account, so sharing access isn’t practical.
You’re absolutely welcome to talk about what you’re learning and share the principles in your own words. Your enthusiasm will be infectious, and that’s the best kind of recommendation I can hope for!

Q: What if I have questions after I start?

A: I want everyone to get the most out of the course, so I’m committed to supporting students as best I can. If you have questions, you can reach me via email at questions@williampward.com.
Naturally, if there are too many questions, I may not be able to respond to everyone individually, but I read everything. If something notable comes up or a particular question is repeated often, I’ll email all students with my response. I will also create additional content based on common questions.
If there’s sufficient demand, I would be happy and honoured to host a weekly live Q&A session for my students. I’ll keep you informed via the email you provide at registration.
