In this episode, I, Celeste, a therapist from Boston, delve into the crucial topic of the mind-body connection. I emphasize how our mental and emotional states are intricately linked to our physical health, highlighting the significant impact our thoughts can have on our bodily functions.

I share personal anecdotes about my experiences with stress and anxiety, particularly how they manifest physically in my body. I discuss the importance of recognizing these signs and not allowing past experiences to dictate our present feelings and actions.

Throughout the episode, I explain how stress can trigger the body's fight-or-flight response, leading to various physical symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, and digestive issues.

I also provide practical tips for nurturing the mind-body connection, including mindfulness practices, yoga, deep breathing, and the importance of sleep and self-care. I encourage listeners to check in with themselves regularly and to seek help if they notice persistent issues.
