I'm trying to describe a situation when a person was scared and their fear began to subside.
Can I use "heart slowed down" or does that connote sickness or fainting?
This is the sentence:
Jack sprinted up the stairs. It was quiet there. He sat down, his pounding heart beginning to slow down as his fear subsided a bit.
If not, how can I express the idea that a person's fear was beginning to dissipate?
