We know what you’re all thinking - the weekend never comes fast enough! We’ve got just what you need to unwind during the busy season😎 When you’re stressed, your hypothalamus, a tiny control tower in your brain, decides to send out the order: release the stress hormones! These stress hormones are the same ones that trigger your body’s “fight or flight” response. This response is designed to protect your body in an emergency by preparing you to react quickly. But when the stress response keeps firing, day after day, it can cause wear and tear on the body. So learn to manage your stress, before it manages you. Some stress in life is normal – and a little stress can help us to feel alert, motivated, focused, energetic and even excited. It’s all about keeping it in check. 📷 Via @jacquelynsternn #calm #mood #feelgood #wellness #saturdayvibes #saturdaymood
