Living Well with Stress with Elissa Epel, PhD

World-renowned psychologist and best selling author Elissa Epel on embracing stress and transforming it.  Stress is a part of life.   It’s ubiquitous. It is the ocean we swim in. We can’t avoid it. But we can learn to live well with it.  Humans have a stress response for a reason. It prepares our mind and body for what we need to do in the moment and in the moments ahead. Even our negative thoughts can trigger our bodies stress response, so we rarely experience periods of ease and deep restoration.  Humans are exquisitely built to handle stress. In fact we need it.  And in the right dosage and frequency, it helps keep our cells young and vital.  SUPPORT THE SHOW, SHOW YOUR LOVE Become a patron on Patreon.com and join exisiting memebers who contribute towards our monthly goal of $500.  Make a one-time donation in any amount to say “Thank you!” Rate or write a review FULL SHOW NOTES www.authenticparenting.com/podcast HOW TO WORK WITH ANNA I would be thrilled to support you in your parenting journey!
