Stress is a natural part of life, and our response to it is an amazing survival advantage. Stress induces a fight-or-flight reaction in us. It compels us to act in a big way to overcome danger.
The problem in our modern world is; stress becomes chronic. When worrying about money, our goals, our families all day, we can feel trapped, and with time anxiety sets in.
This can look like panic, overthinking and fear, but it can also be far subtler. Grinding teeth, headaches, back or muscle pain, and insomnia can all be signs that we're taking stress or trauma and repressing it. Storing it away in our bodies.
I believe stress can be so destructive to our lives that should be targeted from all angles.
As a world-class expert in Somatic Movement, that is always my first strategy.
I even have an entire course sharing exactly how to use movement to unlock and release stress and trauma that you've unknowingly locked in your body.
But for many people, anxiety is so crippling to their lives that they're ready to try everything at once.
With that in mind, I find daily affirmations (usually alongside journaling) can be a powerful tool to calm and relieve stress and anxious worries.
