3.5 Hard To Rest

Parkinson’s and Me - Navigating Early Parkinson's: Essential Insights

People with Parkinson’s disease (PD) often notice that their symptoms are worse when they are under stress. In addition to life stress, people with PD may experience anxiety as part and parcel of their PD itself, caused by chemical imbalances in the brain. Anxiety and stress are two different things, but can often manifest themselves in similar ways, making it challenging to tell the difference.

Daniel identifies his anxieties and how they lead to stress. Since one of his personal goals is to "Speak Life" then it's very important for him to strike a balance. However, if he is not able to rest then the result is more complications with the progression of P.D. What can we do to lower anxiety, lower blood pressure, and improve our quality of life?
