During chronic stress, we aren't able to come back into the window of tolerance.In this episode, Lauren walks through Aaron Alexander's align method and helps us to understand how movement purges stress from the body. The Align Method Daily Five will help you get back into that window of tolerance and keep your body in an optimal state of functioning.  Lauren answers this week’s listener question during the episode: What are the signs of childhood sexual abuse?Try-at-home tip:  Cold plunge (actually get into a bucket of water with ice in it!)
