Your Life, Chronic Stress, and the Downward Spiral You Didn’t Know to Fear

Today we’re talking about stress. We all have it… but did you know that chronic stress could be killing you slowly? Always comparing yourself to others and constantly striving for perfection can place a huge amount of stress on you and in-turn, massively impact your health in a negative way.
 
So, in this episode, I’m going to be shedding some light on the negative impacts of stress in the long-term. I’ll be covering the biological, the psychological, and the social implications of stress; as well as how we can better manage it through setting boundaries, practicing self-care, and finding a healthy balance!
