Today we're talking about stress, something that we've all experienced. And if you say you don't get stressed, congratulations and also we call bullsh*t.   But fear not, Dr. Elissa Epel is here to give us some tactical tips to address it. She's the author of The Stress Prescription, a book that promises more joy and ease in just seven days. As an expert in stress and biological aging, she knows a thing or two about the subject. And the best part? She actually provides practical strategies that you can apply to your life, rather than broad, useless recommendations. Here at Highway to Well, we love useful tools and guidance, not just meaningless gestures. So without further ado, let's hear from Dr. Elissa Epel.

 

Dr. Epel talks about…

  • Why stress isn’t always bad for you and how to distinguish between them

  • Methods for reducing stress in the moment

  • Taking inventory over what you can control

  • The relationship between stress and anxiety

  • Managing the stress responses in kids

  • How stress passes down generationally
