How Does Chronic Stress Affect Your Body?

"Chronic stress is stress that lasts weeks, months or even years"When I think about chronic stress it reminds me of that saying…“God never gives you anything more than you can handle”My response is always just because I look like from the outside I can handle anything, doesn’t mean it is easy.  On my journey as a mum to a child with additional needs, our eldest daughter was diagnosed with both Epilepsy and Autism.  Our youngest daughter had a critical event that landed her in critcal care in the hospital and was touch and go.  I have been asked so many times over the years, “How do you do it?”  My answer is always “I don’t have a choice” I had to learn how to carry it, it is not going anywhere anytime soon.In this episode:My different approach to chronic stress5 steps to incorporating your chronic stress into the fabric of your lifeMy personal story with chronic stress and its effect on my body2 strategies I personally used to reduce the intensity of my stress responseMy quick guide to journaling - printableFree EFT GuideBlog ArticleI trust this serves you!Angel Blessings,NicoleGet in touch!
