Why You’re Terrible at Relaxing - and how Functional Medicine can help


Listen Later

Feeling like you can’t relax - even when you have the time and space to do so? The truth is, we’ve sort of normalized this feeling - this constant state of being “on.” To our over-stimulated brains, it becomes an addiction, a dopamine-seeking behavior like multi-tasking. We’ve gotten so used to being in a constant state of alertness that it becomes our baseline, but it’s far from the physiologic, rest-and-digest, tend-and-befriend baseline that our bodies need to stay healthy and our minds need to stay well. And it’s bothersome - the sleepless nights, anxiety, work-obsession, and time wasted on activities that isolate us from others keep us from living our most full & fulfilled lives.

Tune in to learn how a Functional Medicine approach to stress can help you shut off your overthinking brain without resorting to denial or dissociation.
