Hello
I’m Dr Terry Sheridan, and I teach simple techniques that help you feel calmer, clearer and more in control - fast.
​
We weren’t designed to live with constant pressure. Our bodies evolved for cooperation and calm — not the aggression and tension of modern life. No wonder we feel overwhelmed. Let’s return to what your system recognises as safe.
About me and my business
My brand - Guardian Angel People began in 2002. It focussed on providing managers for small businesses that the owner had to leave due to sickness or taking holidays. Small business owners are notoriously difficult to pass on the reins of control to outsiders so very few business owners wanted a locum manager.
Meanwhile, the business got flooded with unemployed managers and then the question emerged: "Who Can I Trust?" The answer came back after 5 years of PhD research: Only the Respectful Manager can be trusted. That is, only about 15-20% of managers.
Because almost all of the unemployed managers were exhibiting negative emotions, I used my own model of offsetting negative behaviours with positive ones.
And it worked – achieving a 91% success rate. I knew it was good, but I didn’t realise it was that good.
This was set in a 5 day training course of how to find a job in a saturated market.
​
So this is why Guardian Angel People has a multi-faceted role to play with managers of small to medium sized businesses. They can use the Vapourise Technique for reviewing present workforce, to screen new candidates, and for the small business owner themselves so that they can effectively manage their company. Unbeknownst to the small business owner there is a particular type of fraudster who will target up and coming businesses.

Add-ons cover calm in the workplace, respectful management practice, first employment for teenagers as well as the Vapourise Technique to erase stress.
​​
Through all of this, one truth has remained constant:
People can change far more quickly than they’ve been led to believe.
They just need the right tools, delivered at the right moment.
That’s why I created the Vapourise Technique and later the QuickShift Modules - fast, simple practices that give you your power back in minutes instead of months.
​
Why I Created the Vapourise Technique
The Vapourise Technique was actually born out of necessity to make major changes within me. I had to change as I did not like my old life of self blame, controlling behaviour, and inability to trust others and that these behaviours must have come out of my adoption at 4 days old.
I was right. And it took me 6 months to put together a system that healed me. For you it will start this process immediately. Most people begin with Module 1.

Instant download - no account needed
In my own work I watched too many people sink under self-blame, anxiety, and the weight of difficult workplaces. Traditional methods often took too long, or required resources that many people simply didn’t have.
So I developed my healing system to:
• calm the inner critic
• interrupt unhelpful emotional spirals
• restore clarity in under a minute
• shift behaviour in real time
• create gentle, sustainable change
Not theory.
Not jargon.
Just real tools you can use right now, wherever you are.
