The exercises provide a gentle way to reconnect and regulate. I especially appreciated the micro-practices, which I now use throughout my workday. Informative, empowering, and extremely helpful.

This audiobook helped me understand my stress responses on a deeper level. Instead of fighting anxiety, I learned to work with my nervous system through grounding, movement, and breathwork. The explanations are clear, and the exercises are both manageable and effective. I found myself using many of the tools during daily life, especially in stressful moments. Highly supportive resource.
