Your body can turn on its stress response by thought alone.

You don't have to BE in a stressful situation for those hormones to do their damage. You can be sitting at your kitchen table perfectly safe, thinking stressful thoughts and your body doesn't know the difference between that and what is happening at the moment.

It will start pumping out the hormones of stress ANYTIME you're worrying and overthinking and feeling overwhelmed.

So, you're sitting in your kitchen thinking about your 20 something son and everything that's going wrong right now in his life. You're ruminating over your last conversation with him and worrying about his job and his drinking and his new friends.  

You wonder if you were too hard on him. You try to call him and he doesn't answer. You text. You text again. You wake up the next morning feeling anxious, then you remember that he never texted you back. 

What has often happened is that your body has become addicted to this stress cycle and today, you think your son is the reason, but tomorrow it might be your bank balance or a fight with your spouse or you job.

When you condition your brain and body to stress, it gets REALLY good at making stress a habit. So much so that you're not even conscious you're doing it to yourself.

And it's NOT to say that life isn't really hard sometimes or that  you shouldn't be concerned about your son or your bank account or your spouse, the question is: Are you helping the situation by making yourself literally sick with stress hormones?

And most of us women over 40 have become addicted to these hormones, that this just feels normal to us.

But it's not normal and our bodies were not built to handle the chronic level of stress hormones that our bodies are making everyday. 

It's making us irritable and exhausted and sick. We've lost our joy, we're lost our favorite version of ourselves.
