I had the opportunity to listen to this book and I'm glad I did. I've been curious about the Polyvagal Theory and the author does an excellent job of explaining what it is and how to use it to help calm yourself down. It's not like all the other books in a similar niche that just say change your mindset and you'll feel better. No, the author talks about changing your body by doing very simple little exercises each day for about a month. Those exercises really do seem to have an impact in helping me manage my emotions and with anxiety. Great listen!

I've long been familiar with the power of the Vagus Nerve, but I wasn't aware of the various ways and circumstances I could activate if to create calm and assist with internal peace.

The author provides scenarios for applying a various ways to manipulate my vagus nerve to. pull me out of a stressful reaction. I think a lot of readers will enjoy adding another Tool to their Tool Box of Life to help process whatever life sends their way!

It’s easy to get lost in the science behind polyvagal theory, but this keeps things easy to follow. It doesn’t overcomplicate things, which I appreciated. The daily prompts are easy to follow and gradually build a rhythm that can help you feel more grounded. I wouldn’t say it’s life-changing overnight, but if you’re looking for small, low-effort ways to support your emotional balance, it’s a nice tool to have.

I picked this audiobook ’coz lately I’ve been feeling a bit outta sync! like my stress responses were on autopilot lol. The whole idea of tuning into my body and learning to calm my nervous system sounded mad helpful. I was curious abt how the Polyvagal Theory could actually work in real life, not just in theory. This 28-day approach felt doable, and honestly, it gave me tools to slow down, check in with myself, and feel more grounded in the chaos.
