Simple Stress Management | A New Study on Meditation & Breathwork

The No Nonsense Wellness Podcast | Weight Loss & Health for Real Life - without diets, emotional eating, or BS

Got Stress? Ya, I know you do, we all do. CHRONIC stress. Did you know that that chronic stress is drastically interfering with your ability to lose weight and get healthy? Chronic stress contributes to heart disease, insomnia, poor immune function, inability to lose weight, skin issues, anxiety, low energy, poor recovery, etc. etc. It's obvious that managing your chronic stress is a BIG DEAL! You've probably heard that one of the most effective ways to deal with stress is meditation, but have you tried to meditate? I find it SUPER difficult, and I've tried several times to start a habit of meditation with no success. I just don't stick to it. If that sounds like you too, I've got geed news! A new study out of Harvard has found that certain breathing exercises are actually MORE effective than mediation at improvements overall in heart rate variability, improved sleep, reduced stress, and improved mood. In this episode I'm going to break down the study, what they looked at, what they found and how YOU can incorporate these super easy breathing exercises right now to start managing your stress. In writing and recording this episode I'm thinking it might be awesome to have a stress management challenge!
