After a perceived threat has been resolved, the parasympathetic nervous system becomes active, initiating restorative processes that return the body to a relaxed state of equilibrium, often called the 'rest-and-digest' response. This system counteracts the fight-or-flight response by normalizing bodily functions. For example, it causes heart rate and blood pressure to decrease to normal levels, pupils to constrict, and bladder control to be restored. Additionally, it promotes energy conservation by stimulating the liver to store glucose in the form of glycogen for future use.
