The natural cortisol spike, combined with the immediate urge to scroll through news or to-do lists, often fires up the nervous system before you leave the bed. This guided meditation is designed to help you reclaim those first ten minutes, allowing you to set a tone of calm before the noise of the day reaches you. Hosted by Martin , a clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic, this session utilizes a Vagus Nerve Reset to lower your morning cortisol load and move your body from a state of \"alert\" into \"anchored\". By rehearsing a version of yourself that is grounded and ready, you teach your nervous system to meet the world with quiet confidence.
