As a follow up to episode 13 on the topic of physical stress, this episode is an interview with an experienced counselor about emotional stress. Not only can we get through it, we can thrive and become stronger than ever. Heather McKenzie says our emotions are like signal lights on the dashboard. She suggests not looking at emotions as good or bad but merely as indicators of what’s going on beneath the surface. She gives us insight into the causes of stress, ways to address stress and prevent more long-term anxiety. We also talk about how to be more naturally resilient in stressful situations. Finally, she shares techniques to use when stress feels overwhelming both later on (when reflecting on the situation) and in the moment of peak stress.
