After a stressful event, your nervous system needs time to settle. This isn't just about relaxing; it's a physical process where your parasympathetic system gradually takes the lead, lowering heart rate and cortisol levels. Simple practices like slow, deep breathing or gentle, sustained movement can signal safety to your body, aiding this natural reset.
