Food and alcohol are commonly turned to as safety blankets in stressful times, but such habits can bestow negative long-term effects on our health and well-being. So, in this episode of Aging Less: The Longevity Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella consults health coach Vicky Midwood on healthier alternatives to managing stress.
With over 32 years in the health and wellness world, Vicky Midwood helps business owners, over the age of 40, eliminate the anxiety, guilt, and shame, of turning to food and drink behind closed doors. Taking a practical approach, she helps them understand their brain, and how their own body works, so they can choose a different solution, and create the body, confidence, and lifestyle they truly desire. Additionally, Vicky Midwood has acquired several certifications and qualifications, alongside lived experience, granting her the toolkit to guide clients of various needs.
In this episode, Vicky Midwood sheds light on the three major types of stress: acute, eustress, and chronic. She reveals that, while some stress may be beneficial, those who experience prolonged periods of chronic stress are more likely to have shorter lifespans. Additionally, Vicky Midwood highlights that rumination, procrastination, and distraction, are major contributors to prolonged stress.
Together, Marie and Vicky Midwood touch on important steps to breaching the dysfunctional eating cycle, as well as further lifestyle changes that may be beneficial in the process. So, tune in this week for expert insights and guidance on breaking bad habits for a better life!
