5 Things to do after a Stressful Day
Do you know how to regulate your nervous system?
Once upon a time, humans had occasional yet specific triggers for our fight or flight response (sympathetic nervous system). Usually these were threats to our existence. For most of us today, we’re triggered into this stress response not just in life threatening moments but day to day life. For example, the twinges of tension you feel from the constant onslaught of communication (texts, emails, phone calls, video meetings, social media, etc) you endure day in and day out.
When you live more in this sympathetic state (vs. the calmer parasympathetic), your health suffers. It can exacerbate health issues like mental health, heart problems, diabetes and many more. Check out what the Mayo Clinic has to say about it HERE. Learn more about the connections between stress and muscles tension chronic pain, migraines, digestive issues, reproductive health, and more in THIS ARTICLE from American Psychological Association.
