Chronic Stress Is Holding You Back From Health & Weight Loss

Chronic Stress is Making You Fat

As a society, we're more stressed than we've ever been. We're also more out of shape, overweight, obese, and unhealthy than we've ever been. Stress isn't the ONLY reason we're struggling but it's a HUGE contributing factor that we don't give enough time, thought, or work to.

Stress is not just when you feel overwhelmed or pulled in too many directions, stress is a physiological response in your body to TONS of things. Acute stress, like running from a tiger in the jungle, has kept us alive, but chronic stress is slowly killing us. We were not designed to be in a stress response long term, yet that's how most of us live our lives and it's taking a toll. Chronic stress can result in:

high blood pressure and heart disease
insomnia
chronic illness and auto immune disorders
stroke
overweight, obesity, difficulty losing weight
poor digestion, and impaired gut microbiome
weak immune function and prone to catching illnesses
muscle tension and pain
skin irritations and rashes
poor recovery from physical activity

If you're struggling to get healthy and lose weight it could be that chronic stress that's holding you back! Listen in to find out how, and what to do about it.
