The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for regulating the body's resting and digesting functions, which promote relaxation and calmness. The peripheral nervous system includes all nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, and the sympathetic nervous system is responsible for the body's fight or flight response to stress. However, neither of these systems are specifically responsible for regulating calmer functions.
