How to Thrive Under Stress

What if you could literally train your body to THRIVE under stress??

When we’re stressed, most of us try to:

• Think our way through it
• Numb out with distractions
• Or let it take over our day?

But, if there’s one thing you can do to start moving through stressful situations quicker and with more resilience…

It’s to move your body on a regular basis.

Why? Because exercise actually trains your body to handle stress by mimicking fight-or-flight, so you get better at dealing with it.

In other words, exercise is a way for your body to “practice” stress so it knows what to do when it strikes!?

As an added bonus, the endorphins can give your mood a boost…

So a quick walk or workout can help take the edge off as stress occurs.

This is so important when it comes to building healthier habits because cortisol — your body’s stress hormone – can make it harder to manage your appetite, sleep well, or even have the energy to choose healthier habits.

A regular workout routine is ideal…

But if you want some simpler ways to “move” through stress, you might consider:

• Breaking up your day with 15- to 30-second stretches when you start feeling overwhelmed
• Doing light yoga before bed to blow off steam and wind down for sleep
• Or even taking a short walk during your lunch break to clear your mind and stretch your legs!?

The bottom line is that stress management is a key part of healthy living.
