Something happened.

A sharp word, a look, a mistake —

and suddenly your whole body is tight.

The world shrinks to one small knot inside your chest.

You walk away for a moment.

Somewhere quieter.

Not to escape, but to breathe.

At first, everything is narrow.

Your thoughts race.

Your muscles hold the line.

You feel like you’re made of tension.

Then you remember.

You don’t have to fight it.

You can widen your attention.

You look around.

See the room. The distance. The air between things.

You feel your feet, the ground beneath them.

You sense the quiet, steady space that’s always there —

the calm field that holds everything, including you.

As your awareness expands,

something changes inside your brain.

Electrical activity that was chaotic and sharp

starts to synchronise —

like stormy waves turning into slow, even rhythm.

Neurons begin to move together,

alpha waves rise,

and your nervous system exhales.

The vagus nerve sends a message of safety through your body.

Heart rate softens, muscles release,

your gut relaxes and digestion wakes.

Stress chemistry fades,

and in its place — balance.

You didn’t take a pill.

You didn’t fix the world.

You just gave your brain a different signal.

And the whole body followed.

That’s the real CALM PILL.

Always available.

Always inside you.

Ten seconds of space.

And everything begins to change.

Just stay aware of space.
