37: 5 Quick Ways to Reduce Stress & Take Back Control

One of my coaches once said, the difference between panic and excitement is the exhalation. 

And it’s so true. 

A normal reaction to stress is to hold your breath, or breathe very shallow. 

But when you are excited, the exhalation usually comes a bit more easily. 

And that exhalation can be such a game changer. 

Short-term stress responses are a natural part of life, and something that you can’t avoid even if you would love to. 

But, long-term chronic stress is not something to take lightly as the consequences of that will affect you in a number of negative ways. 

I know this does not come as a surprise to you and I’m sure you are very aware of it. 

But what can you do to reduce the stress reactions? 

In this episode I will go through five ways that will support you to handle stress better and feel more in control.
