unswirl
Undo the twist
To unswirl is to reverse or undo a swirling motion, returning something to a less turbulent or more orderly state.
The word appears in contexts where something twisted or mixed needs straightening: She unswirled the ribbon from the pole.
It can also describe mental clarity after confusion: Give me a minute to unswirl my thoughts.
