Overview

Some forms of vigilance are obvious. Others are quiet enough to feel like normal life. How to Stop Living in Constant Readiness describes a state in which the body remains prepared even when nothing is actively wrong. Attention stays slightly lifted. Muscles remain subtly engaged. Rest happens, but it does not fully land. This posture often feels functional. Responsible. Controlled. It works well enough that it is rarely questioned. This book does not approach constant readiness as a disorder, a mindset issue, or something to be fixed. It offers no techniques, exercises, or instructions for relaxation. Instead, it provides careful description-language for understanding how prolonged readiness develops, why it persists after conditions improve, and what happens when the body begins to stand down gradually, on its own terms. Written in a calm, non-directive voice, the book explores: - what constant alert feels like from the inside - how readiness becomes a way of living rather than a response - why rest can feel unfamiliar or destabilizing at first - how settling develops without collapse - what ordinary life looks like when bracing is no longer constant This is not a book about optimization, healing, or self-improvement. It does not ask you to change your posture, release vigilance, or trust your body. It offers recognition. How to Stop Living in Constant Readiness is written for attentive, capable, quietly resilient readers who sense that rest has never quite belonged to them-and who are ready to understand why, without pressure or demand.
