THE 12-WEEK NOW STEP® PROGRAMME · WITH WEEKLY LIVE SUPPORT FROM LYN
Your anxiety has had a good long run.
It’s got 12 weeks left.
The racing heart. The endless what ifs. The Googling. The checking. The need to know for sure. It might feel like a hundred different problems. It’s the same cycle underneath. The NOW STEP® Programme is a structured 12-week CBT programme with Lyn Penman, BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist, designed to help you understand what keeps your anxiety going and start changing what happens next.

This is what change can actually look like.
Kimberley carried emergency anxiety kits everywhere. She eventually threw them away.
Laura avoided motorways for 15 years. Seven weeks in, she was driving on one again and going into the big Tesco.
Amy got back on public transport and took her children to a Broadway show.
Michelle stopped believing every chest pain was a heart attack.
Teresa spent 30 years believing anxiety was simply how she was made. Now she says she can finally breathe.
Real women. Real changes.
These are the kinds of things women say to me all the time
“My brain never stops. I answer one worry and another one takes its place.”
“I can feel completely fine and then suddenly my whole body reacts. My heart races, my stomach drops, I feel shaky, dizzy or just ‘not right’.”
“Then I start trying to work out what it means. Is something wrong? Have I missed something? What if this isn’t just anxiety?”
“I check. I Google. I ask someone. I scan my body. I replay conversations. I go back over things in my head.”
“I know reassurance only helps for a little while, but in the moment I feel like I HAVE to know.”
“It’s like mental ping-pong. Every time I answer one ‘what if’, my brain throws another one back.”
If you recognise yourself in any of that, you’re exactly who I created The NOW STEP®️ Programme for.
Right now, it might look like this
01 · YOUR BODY
Your heart races when you’re doing absolutely nothing.
Your chest feels tight. Your stomach turns. Your legs go to jelly.
You feel dizzy or spaced out and immediately wonder:
What if something’s wrong?
02 · YOUR HEAD
A headache becomes a brain tumour.
A late text becomes a car crash.
What if it’s serious? What if it happens again? What if I said the wrong thing?
You replay Tuesday’s conversation at 1am.
And “probably fine” never feels like enough.
03 · WHAT YOU DO NEXT
You Google the symptom.
Then Google it again, slightly differently.
You ask ChatGPT.
You check your pulse.
You ask your husband if you seem okay.
You feel better.
Until you need to check again.
Health anxiety. Generalised Anxiety and nonstop worry.
OCD. Panic Attacks
The details might be different.
But underneath, we start with three questions:
N · NOTICE
What am I feeling?
The racing heart. Tight chest. Jelly legs. Adrenaline.
O · OBSERVE
What am I thinking?
The what ifs. The catastrophising. The thoughts that won’t leave you alone.
W · WITNESS
What am I doing because of it?
Checking. Googling. Asking. Avoiding. Over-preparing
Notice. Observe. Witness.
That’s where the change starts.
Your 12 week path
One module a week.
One clear focus.
One step closer to knowing what to do when anxiety shows up.
Not a library of videos to get lost in.
A structured path with a real finish line.
WEEKS 1–6
Understand what’s happening.
Why anxiety happens
Understand why your brain and body react the way they do and why that response can change.
Learn your N.O.W. Reset
Notice. Observe. Witness. Your framework for catching the cycle as it happens.
Stop fearing the alarm
Understand the racing heart, tight chest and shaky hands without automatically treating them like danger.
Stop believing every thought
Learn to notice catastrophising, intrusive thoughts and what ifs without getting pulled into them.
Spot what keeps anxiety going
See the checking, Googling, reassurance and avoidance you might not even realise you’re doing.
Come back to now
Learn mindfulness that works in actual life not just when everything is quiet.
WEEKS 7–12
Start changing what happens next.
Stop letting worry run the day
Separate the problems you can solve from the worries you can’t.
Stop needing to know for sure
So eventually, “probably fine” can be enough.
Question the rules anxiety gave you
Like “If I stop worrying, something bad might happen.”
Turn worry into action
Solve what you can. Stop endlessly thinking about what you can’t.
Start doing the things anxiety made smaller
Drop safety behaviours and face fears gradually, at your pace.
Know what to do next time
Leave with your own anxiety action plan and tools you know how to use.
You don’t finish knowing more about anxiety.
You finish knowing what to do with it.

"These were my anxiety little survival kits I couldn't leave the house without. If you told me a year ago I would one day be throwing them away I wouldn't have believed you. Today is the day they go in the bin.
- Kimberley · The Now Step Programme
Six little bags she once felt she couldn’t leave home without.
Then one day, she didn’t need them anymore.
That’s the work.
You wake up and just… wake up.
No instant scan of your body. No “why do I feel weird?” before your feet have even hit the floor.
You go out for the day with your kids, grandkids, partner or friends and actually enjoy being there.
You feel calmer. More present. More like you’re actually in your life again.
You book the holiday without checking 47 reviews, the nearest hospital, the weather and whether there’s a Boots nearby.
You send the message without rereading it 12 times wondering if you sounded rude.
A weird body sensation shows up and you don’t immediately Google it, check it, ask someone about it or start scanning for more evidence.
And when anxiety starts shouting:
CHECK. GOOGLE. ASK. THINK ABOUT IT AGAIN.
You don’t automatically salute and obey.
You notice it.
You let it be there.
You carry on with your day.
And someone who loves you says:
“You seem more like yourself today”.
You don’t just get the modules.
YOU GET LYN.
Every week for all 12 weeks, join Lyn for a live 30-minute NOW STEP® session.
Bring what’s getting in the way.
Leave with one NOW Step for the week ahead.
Drop one safety behaviour.
Run one experiment.
Face one thing you’ve been avoiding.
Or let one thought exist without doing anything about it.
Can’t make it live?
Watch the replay.
Camera off?
Absolutely fine.
Only on Week 2?
Also fine.
Lyn meets you wherever you are in the programme.
Because knowing what to do is one thing.
Actually doing it is where things change.

Meet Lyn
Lyn Penman is a BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist, bestselling author, mum of four and former midwife.
Twelve years ago, Lyn was struggling with anxiety herself and wondering if she would ever feel like herself again.
She knows what it’s like to monitor your body, overanalyse every thought, seek reassurance, Google for answers and desperately try to feel certain that everything is okay.
That experience eventually led Lyn to train as a CBT therapist and develop the NOW STEP® method, combining evidence-based CBT with what she learned from living through anxiety herself.
Today, she helps women understand the part of anxiety that is so often missed: the things we do to try to feel safer can actually keep the anxiety cycle going.
The the NOW STEP® Programme teaches you how to recognise that cycle, change your response to anxiety and start getting your life back.

“The NOW STEP®: manage your mental health without going over the past”
The women in those reviews aren't special.
They just started.
They wondered if it would work.
They were sceptical.
They nearly waited until after Christmas, after the holiday, or until work calmed down.
There’s no waiting list.
There’s no fixed start date.
You can start today.
And every week you wait is another week of checking, Googling, avoiding and telling yourself:
Maybe next week.

The things people ask before joining
I've tried everything and nothing works.
You've tried tips. Tips are not treatment. This is structured CBT from an accredited therapist: behavioural experiments, graded exposure, thought records, dropping safety behaviours, with a live session every week so you're never left working it out on your own. Kate had tried counselling and CBT before, and still called this the first time she truly believed she could overcome it.
I don't have time for another course.
You work through the modules alone, in your own time, whenever you get a quiet moment. Add the 30-minute live session if you can make it, catch the replay if you can't. It's built for women with full lives, not spare afternoons.
What if I fall behind?
Everything's recorded and yours to keep pace with. The live sessions meet you wherever you are. There's no catching up to do.
What if I join and it's not for me?
You have 14 days. Look around, watch the toolkit, come to a live session, start module one. If it isn't right for you, message Lyn within those 14 days and you'll get every penny back.
What happens after the 12 weeks?
Once you’ve completed the structured 12-Week NOW STEP®️ Programme, you can either finish and take everything you’ve learned with you, or choose to join The Academy.
The Academy is the ongoing support and maintenance community and is not available as a standalone membership to new customers. If you continue, you’ll keep access to the ongoing Academy support, including the weekly NOW STEP®️ sessions, LynBot®️, community, challenges and live wellbeing support.
You can cancel the Academy membership at any time.
What if I can’t afford the programme?
Each month I have one limited reduced-cost scholarship place available for someone who genuinely wouldn’t otherwise be able to join. If you’d like to apply, please send Lyn a DM and she’ll let you know the next steps or email lyn@lynpenman.com
Twelve weeks from now, you'll be somewhere.
The only question is whether it’s the same place.
