Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Your body is stuck in alarm mode. Here's how to switch it back to safe.

Racing heart. Shallow breathing. A mind that won't quiet down even when nothing is "wrong." If willpower alone hasn't worked, that's not a character flaw - it's your nervous system doing exactly what it learned to do under stress.

The Regulated Nervous System is a practical, polyvagal-theory-based guide to understanding and retraining your body's stress response - not through vague advice, but through 40 concrete, step-by-step protocols you can start using today.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

- Recognize your nervous system states in under 60 seconds and respond with the right technique, not guesswork- Use breathing, grounding, and orientation protocols to shift out of alarm and into safety- Calm panic attacks in 10 minutes with a clear, repeatable emergency protocol- Work with trauma triggers through safe, dosed titration instead of overwhelm- Regulate sleep, blood sugar, gut health, and inflammation as nervous-system levers, not separate problems- Set boundaries, ask for co-regulation, and rebuild resilience without burning out again- Use HRV biofeedback, cold exposure, and a 4-week resilience cycle to train lasting stability>Each chapter gives you the "why" in plain language, then a clear protocol with exact timing, frequency, and troubleshooting - so you're never left wondering what to actually do in the moment.

Whether you're dealing with chronic stress, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma responses, chronic pain, migraines, IBS, or simply the sense that your body never fully relaxes, this book gives you a science-informed map back to regulation - one small, repeatable step at a time.

Includes a full glossary of every named protocol and model in the book for quick reference.

Your nervous system can learn a new pattern. This book shows you how, one protocol at a time.
