Coming Home to Yourself is the memoir of a male nurse with over two decades in the cardiac catheterization lab - a high-stakes environment where stillness is rarely an option and sensitivity is seldom celebrated. Written from the witness stance of a daily contemplative practitioner, this book traces one man's journey from hypervigilance and survival mode to a life rooted in presence, breath, and service. Drawing on Buddhist and Taoist practice, neuroscience, and the hard-won wisdom of the cath lab, Robert Sherrod offers an unflinching look at what it means to be a highly sensitive person in a world that rewards toughness over depth. This is not a self-help manual. It is an honest reckoning - with fear, with anger, with the internal voices that accompany a sensitive nervous system through decades of high-pressure work. And ultimately, it is a story of coming home.
