The Settled Workbook — Understand Your Stress Responses and Find What Actually Settles You (52-page printable & fillable PDF)
Stress has two settings. Most advice only knows one.
Some days you are wound up — racing thoughts, tight jaw, breath high in the chest. Other days you are flat — heavy, foggy, numb, canceling plans. The tools that help one can backfire on the other: slow breathing settles a revved-up system and can sink a flat one further.
The Settled Workbook gives you a two-minute check to tell which state you are in, then twelve one-page tools, each marked for the state it suits.
