The Chemistry of Cortisol: Why high-stress attraction is often mistaken for soulmate chemistry.
The Science of Scent: How your nervous system state actually changes your pheromones and the subconscious signals you send to potential partners.
Breaking the Cycle: How regulating your nervous system shifts your "attachment set point" to attract emotionally available partners.
