Why is it so hard to “switch off” at the end of the day?

You close your laptop, but your mind keeps buzzing.

You replay conversations, run through tomorrow’s to-dos, maybe even reach for your phone to check just one more email.

And even if you try to relax with food, TV, or scrolling, the stress lingers.

That’s because your nervous system doesn’t instantly reset when work ends.

Without the right signals, your body stays stuck in fight-or-flight—leaving you restless, snappy, and unable to truly rest.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through a simple 10-minute transition ritual that helps your body actually release the stress of the day and step into your evening with more peace, presence, and joy.

You’ll learn:
✔️ Why your brain and body resist shutting down after work (and what’s really going on physiologically)
✔️ How “happy hormones” like dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins help you reset
✔️ A guided, science-backed practice that combines breath, somatic release, and prayer
✔️ How to re-enter your evening grounded—in your body, in your relationships, and in God’s rest

💡 You don’t need numbing strategies to unwind. You need a nervous system that knows the workday is over. This practice is your reset button.
