How do you manage stress in the face of small or large-scale traumatic events?

Dr. Teryn Clarke is back with us to tackle a pressing issue—how to manage stress when trauma feels like it is all around us, especially in the face of large-scale traumatic events like the recent fires in California. Dr. Teryn, who is based in Orange County, shares firsthand accounts of the devastation, highlighting the emotional toll on displaced families and communities.

Our conversation centers on effective techniques for managing stress, emphasizing the importance of microdoses of relaxation through simple breathing exercises. Dr. Teryn explains the physiological impacts of stress on the body, particularly elevated levels of cortisol, and how they can be mitigated.

We also cover the benefits of maintaining good nutrition, the critical role of socialization in mental health, and practical tips to help both adults and children handle anxiety and stress in their daily lives.

Whether you’re dealing with minor daily stressors or major life events, this episode provides actionable insights to help you maintain emotional balance.
