In this episode of PMDD PEP Talk, Jes explores the crucial difference between rest and distraction in managing PMDD symptoms.

She explains why understanding this distinction is vital for symptom management, breaking down how true rest activates the parasympathetic nervous system while distraction merely provides temporary relief.

The episode offers practical examples of both rest and distraction activities, emphasizing how even short 10-minute rest breaks can significantly impact symptom management.
