How STRESS MANAGEMENT Helps You Heal [Essential 8 Series]
About this episode
Episode 63 - Essential 8 Series (Part 5)
At the heart of understanding and healing anxiety or depression through a nervous system lens is stress management and understanding the basics of stress physiology. In this conversation I share with you (what I hope is) a refreshing perspective on navigating overwhelming stressors. I'll reintroduce the "stress bucket analogy" and unpack it in a bit of a different way than we have before providing you with a tangible framework for understanding stress load and creating more capacity.
Stress isn't the problem, chronic stress is - let's figure out how to navigate that better together. Hit play to learn more!

So here’s the 3 takeaways:
- There is no managing an unmanageable amount of stress, assessing and editing to some extent likely needs to happen. Doing that with third-party assistance and/or using your core values as filters can be really helpful in this process.
- You have to have room in your bucket before you can do the deeper work.
- There are many paths towards more managed stress, the key is finding yours. My advice for that would be, start with what’s easiest, get support, and know that your environment and community influences matter.
