Enjoy a sweet return to nervous system homeostasis.

Life often has us amped up, pedal to the metal and gentle, mellow practices like this help us tap the brakes and return to that perfect balance.

Simple and sweet wind-down practice to regulate your nervous system and return to balance.

When stress is rising, sometimes you just need to simplify, ground yourself and dial things back.
