If you live with hypervigilance, telling yourself to "just relax" rarely works. When your threat detection system is stuck on high alert, a part of your mind genuinely believes that dropping your guard is dangerous.

In this guided hypnosis session, we work with that protective response rather than fighting against it. Through the metaphor of the tower keeper, you will learn how to safely hand over the watch, moving away from constant, exhausting scanning and shifting into a state of calm, efficient awareness.
