Ep. 68 - Taking Control of Your Stress Response, with Jeff Benton

When we feel stressed, we limit key parts of the brain from functioning properly. In particular, the frontal cortex, which is the smart thinking part of our brain. We become limited in our problem solving skills, communication, and ability to empathize and see others’ perspectives. That’s why I was excited to banter today with Jeff Benton, a Master HeartMath Trainer, and the CEO/Founder of Paragon Performance Evolution. Paragon creates and implements leadership, high-performance, stress management and resiliency programs for individuals and organizations around the world.     Jeff's unique background combines ancient wisdom from spiritual masters with cutting-edge technology from brain scientists, giving him profound insights into stress management. In this episode, we dive deep into the heart’s electromagnetic field and explore how to take control of your stress response. By understanding and practicing heart-brain coherence, we can optimize brain functions and enhance our overall physiology, leading to greater clarity, joy, gratitude, and deeper, more meaningful relationships. Who wouldn’t want that? Plus, Jeff’s practical techniques can be implemented by anyone immediately!   If you’d like the 6 minute coherence technique recording, email Jeff ([email protected]) or me ([email protected]).     You can connect with this week’s guest via his website - performanceparagon.com, on IG at jeffrey_benton_paragon or LinkedIn at Jeffrey Robert Benton.    #BetterTogether #WeGotThis #LyfeReinvented #HeartBrainCoherence #LessStress
