Shifts You Out of Fight-or-Flight<\/h2>

Many people spend years in a low-grade stress response without realising it: tense at rest and alert during quiet moments. They are unable to fully settle even when the environment is completely safe.\u00a0<\/p>

This is the signature of a nervous system that has defaulted to sympathetic dominance.<\/p>

The body is not designed to operate in alert mode continuously.\u00a0<\/p>

When it does, the cost compounds: poor sleep, muscle tension, disrupted digestion, steady depletion of the capacity to rest.<\/p>

How it works:<\/b><\/p>

The sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the nervous system are designed to alternate, with parasympathetic dominance as the default baseline.<\/p>

Persistent stress collapses that alternation, leaving the sympathetic branch dominant by default and the parasympathetic branch too suppressed to counterbalance it.<\/p>

AVNT (Auricular Vagal Neuromodulation Therapy) directly activates the parasympathetic pathway, shifting the nervous system\u2019s set point back toward the recovery state where the body is supposed to spend most of its time.<\/p>
