The Nervous System & Stress

Stress is not the enemy — it is a wave.

The sympathetic system rises like a storm.

The parasympathetic system settles like the sea returning to calm.

In Caribbean life, storms come and go. So does stress.

The body is built to rise and fall, tighten and release, prepare and restore.

Awareness practices like slow breathing, grounding your feet, or noticing your senses help the tide return to balance.
