You will learn why your body stays wired long after stress passes, and how simple shifts in timing, breathing, and daily habits can coax your nervous system back toward calm. Theo Grant walks you through the signals your vagus nerve sends, the real shape of your cortisol day, and why your morning coffee and evening news might keep you locked in high alert. Miles Hartley narrates with a steady, unhurried voice that mirrors the restfulness the book teaches, pausing where your own breath might deepen. The guidance feels practical and lived in, never rushed. Settle in and let your body remember what relaxation feels like.
