You arrive as the final chapter of this year's story, dear December, carrying with you the weight of all that has been—the triumphs that lit up my days, the joys that felt like fireworks, and yes, the regrets that lingered like shadows.

Healing from these experiences is not simply an emotional process; it is a biological one. The body, finally sensing safety, begins to unwind years of accumulated stress, and in doing so, it demands rest. Understanding the Fight or Flight Response The fight...
