In The Vagus Nerve Reset, Anna Ferguson offers somatic therapies alongside the science of Polyvagal Theory, to help us train our nervous system to stop overreacting, and start responding more calmly to day-to-day stressors and heal past experiences.

Layla has never been out of the rebel camp before, so when she's asked to help the Perfects with Amya, the leader of the cat rebels, she jumps at the chance. She meets Henry, the scientist in charge of Amya's care, and instantly falls into a love/hate relationship with him.

Gina is stuck in the jungle with the cat rebels. Her kidnapping shocks the Perfect into actually having to fend for herself in the real world. Noland is sent to rescue her, but he's caught too. The Perfect and Avoidable manage to escape the cat rebels, but how long will they last in the jungle?

Because of my defect, my mother had to move to the Lower Side. The Perfects are humans that have no physical flaws. They live in luxury, while we live in filth.
