From understanding whats happening when the stress response kicks in to using the detective habit to spot your individual strengths and triggers. Whats more, every element of this book can be personalised to you.
Featuring strategies including quick calm plans for managing triggers and lived-experience advice on understanding emotional regulation, coping with sensory overload and how to look after your senses during intimacy, this guide is here to ensure that you dont just survive adulthood, you thrive in it.
