E66: The Physical Domain of Stress

Nov 01, 2024

Stress is a natural response in our bodies, but when experienced chronically, it can take a serious toll on physical health. When faced with a stressor—whether it is a challenging work situation or a sudden loud noise—our bodies release hormones that heighten alertness and prepare us for action. However, chronic stress can lead to health concerns such as headaches, muscle tension, high blood pressure, heart disease, digestive issues, and insomnia, significantly impacting well-being.

In the physical domain of stress, , and Katie Ward, DNP, discuss the body's instinctual response to stressors and how we are wired to react. They share practical strategies to manage both external stressors and our internal responses to maintain a healthy mind and body.
