About this course

Stress is not a character flaw or a willpower problem; it is a physiological process you can learn to read and steer. This course translates research on the HPA axis, the autonomic nervous system, and proven psychological frameworks into concrete daily practices. You will leave with a personal stress map, a regulation toolkit, and a maintenance routine that keeps your baseline calm even when your circumstances stay hard.
