Stress is as old as humanity, but in today's world, it feels relentless. Evolution of Stress: A Journey Through Human Stress and the Art of Mastering It explores how the stress response evolved, why it so often misfires in the modern age and how we can transform it from a destructive force into a source of power.

This book takes you on a journey through time - from the survival instincts of hunter-gatherers to the digital overwhelm of the 21st century - revealing how our biology was designed to handle threats and why chronic stress leaves us drained, anxious and burned out.

Blending history, neuroscience and practical tools, this book offers a whole-life system for stress mastery.

You'll discover: The science of stress and its surprising evolutionary purpose. Why sleep is your most powerful stress reset and how to get more of it. How nutrition and gut health shape mood and resilience. Why movement is medicine and the simplest ways to integrate it daily. How breathing, music and connection can calm the mind and restore balance.

Whether you want to reclaim your energy, improve your focus or simply find calm in a busy world, this book gives you a toolkit for thriving, not just surviving under pressure.
