Story
Emotions, affect regulation, and interpersonal social behavior are psychological processes that define how people react to events, environmental difficulties, and other people. These processes build our sense of self, help us form connections, and influence whether we feel comfortable in different situations or with different individuals. Despite the fact that these processes may be witnessed scientifically and subjectively, they constitute a complex interplay between our psychological experience and physiological control.

Invaluable Resource!
I had the opportunity to listen to this book and wow! Just wow! This book is a transformative resource for anyone seeking to break free from the grip of stress and anxiety. And who isn't? It provides a nice approach that feels both empowering and practical, offering real tools to regain emotional balance. The vagus nerve exercises and somatic techniques are easy to follow and effective, while the explanations of complex concepts like neuroception and the “Window of Tolerance” are clear and accessible. I had no idea what the Window of Tolerance even was before listening to this book! With inspiring success stories and guided assessments, this book is as motivating as it is informative. Happy to have this in my collection!!

Cool concept and I need it!
I didn’t even know the vagus nerve was a thing, but as I listened on my way to class, it all started to make sense. A friend recommended this audiobook to me, and I really enjoyed listening to it. It shares simple stress-relief exercises you can do anywhere, like quick breathing techniques that actually help during crunch time. What I loved most is how it teaches you to handle stress on your own—no need to reach for your phone. If stress is taking over your college life, give this a try!

Precisely what I need
This book was really helpful for understanding how stress affects my body. It talks about this thing called the vagus nerve, which I didn't know much about before, and how it's connected to your mental and physical health. It explains everything in a way that's easy to understand, even if you don't have a science background. I liked that it gave practical exercises you can do anywhere to calm your nervous system. It’s not just about quick fixes, but about understanding how your body works and how to help it regulate itself. If you're struggling with stress, anxiety, or even past trauma, this book gives you some good tools to try. I’d definitely recommend it.
