151. What Does Conflict Do Within Your Body‪?‬ More to Life with Faith and Lois

    • Relationships

When you face any sort of conflict, your body reacts automatically. Beginning with your brain, your first instinct is to protect yourself. And that's where you get into the danger zone. We'd like to share another way of handling conflict. First, stay present and notice that you've been triggered. What would happen if you let go of the story that's keeping you in a stressful state? By choosing to focus on your body and breathe through whatever you're up against, you can retrain your body to respond instead of react.
