Daily Habits to Reduce Stress and Anxiety

In this video, I teach 10 essential daily habits to manage stress and anxiety. But in this video, I’m also going to explain a way of thinking about stress that can transform it from just something bad that happens to you into something that you can channel and use to be more productive, and also help you feel calmer. You’re going to learn 10 daily habits to reduce stress and anxiety. The stress response is your body’s activating response. When you sense a threat your body turns on the sympathetic response, sends out some adrenaline to spur you into action, heightens your breathing and heart rate to prep you for performance. When you think of Anxiety as motivating energy to resolve problems, Anxiety can become a powerful tool instead of just something bad that you want to avoid. And even if you do have an anxiety disorder. These tools will help you reduce your stress levels and get healthier.

Dealing with CORONAVIRUS ANXIETY (COVID-19)

CoronaVirus (COVID-19) & Anxiety; How we can manage our anxieties during this global pandemic? Many of you have reached out about this, sharing how you are feeling super stressed out, constantly on edge, or even hypervigilant. First I want to let you know that all of these feelings are completely normal and are warranted responses to all of the threats we hear each and every day via the news and social media. Our nervous system is always assessing our environment for safety and/or danger. If it senses a threat to our safety it will help us focus on it so we can be ready to take action against the threat if needed. Really this helps keep us alive. If we are always on the lookout for something or someone who could harm us, then we are prepared to act when the threat becomes imminent.
