Did you know that over-exposure to stress accounts for 90 PERCENT of all primary care visits in the U.S? And almost ALL illness is stress related?!

Whether it be caused by stress, aggravated by stress, or causes stressā¦

Too often we might tell ourselves weāre not stressed, when in fact, weāre probably just used to it. After being under stress for so long (job, relationships, the pandemic, finances, life stressors, etc.) our bodies adapt to these āalarm moleculesā and heightened stress hormones, and we just get used to being in that stressed out state to the pointĀ our body doesnāt even realize itās not normal.Ā
Ā
When we exceed our personal threshold, stress can wreak some major havoc on our bodies:
Ā
š„ GI upset
š„ Cardiovascular issues
š„ Physical Ailments – joint/muscle pain, stiffness, weight gain
š„ Emotional/social challenges
š„ Decreased libido
š„ Mental impairment – brain fog, canāt think straight
š„ Mood changes
š„Sleep problems
The list goes onā¦

A lot of times, people think of stress as just this ONE thing, but itās really not just one thing at all. Itās ALL of these things and more:
Ā
ā ļø Psychological – self-esteem, death, unemployment, divorce
ā ļø Environmental – light, noise, toxins/chemicals
ā ļø Metabolic – inflammation, inadequate nutritionĀ
ā ļø Physiological – pain, too much exercise, poor sleep, trauma
Ā
All of these stressors really add up and can overflow our cup, leading to all of those symptoms up above.

Hereās your reminder that itās OKAY to relax and chill out WITHOUT feeling guilty about it. Your body will thank you for it!
Take care,Ā
