Welcome back to another episode of the Brain Body Resilience Podcast! I'm your host, JPB, and today we're revisiting a topic that continues to resonate deeply. After recently speaking with an organization whose staff deals with community mental health, I was reminded of how critical it is to take care of ourselves, especially when we're overwhelmed and understaffed.

In this throwback episode, we dive into the reality that many of us face—knowing what we should be doing to care for ourselves but feeling unable to do so due to time, energy, and resource constraints. We explore the importance of having a skill set to help you break free from a constant state of stress, worry, and overwhelm, and the necessity of choosing something different if you want different results.

We'll discuss the responsibility we have to care for ourselves, even when the world around us seems like a dumpster fire, and how small, consistent actions can lead to significant change. I'll also share a recent experience that reinforced my mission—to help you realize that you don't have to keep living in stress and anxiety. There are simple tools and changes you can implement to make a difference in your life.

Key Takeaways:

  • Recognizing the importance of self-care, even in the midst of overwhelming circumstances.
  • Understanding that knowing what to do isn’t enough; action is required to create change.
  • The power of perspective in managing stress and how it affects your physiological response.
  • Small, consistent steps are more effective than big leaps in making lasting change.
  • You don’t have to live a life dominated by stress and anxiety—there is a choice.
