Coasting on Cortisol
Stress can keep moving long after the pressure has passed, leaving the body braced for a meeting that ended hours ago. A quiet burnout practice follows that leftover cortisol gently, using ordinary sounds, surfaces and breath as evidence that no emergency is here. Nothing has to switch off; the system is simply allowed to notice it can slow.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
