Episode 5: Breathing Before Responding
In this episode, we explore how urgency is often a nervous system response rather than a true need for speed.
You are gently invited to notice where quick reactions may be rooted in protection, not choice.
Through simple reflection and breathing practices, this episode offers a compassionate way to pause, ground, and respond with greater clarity and ease, reminding the body that safety doesn’t require immediacy.
