About this audiobook
Your heart is hammering against your ribs. Your vision narrows. Your brain goes completely, terrifyingly blank.
Whether you are seated at a high-stakes executive conference table, handling a chaotic household meltdown, or paralyzed before an endless stack of unread emails, acute nervous system overwhelm strikes without warning. In that panicked second, you try to talk yourself down: Calm down. Just breathe. Get it together. Yet the internal pressure only spikes higher. Cold sweat breaks out across your neck. Why? Because you cannot think your way out of a physiological hijack. As author Catherine Andrews explains, the human brainstem simply does not speak English.
Stop fighting your biology with willpower alone. Gain practical mastery over your stress response and restore calm clarity in minutes. Listen to Somatic First Aid today and take control of your nervous system on demand.
