ANXIETY BE GONE:

EFFECTS OF STRESS & ANXIETY

Stress affects the body significantly for anyone of any fitness level.  Heightened stress levels increase the hormone coritsol, which ultimately renders someone with feelings of lethargy as well as an increased inclination to store fat, particularly in the core / abdominal part of the body.   Additionally, stress inhibits one’s ability to actively engage fully in exercise and activity; stress, when not managed well, can disrupt one’s mental health and derail them from their goals, regular activities and basic coming and goings.

Stress management is one of the most important foundations of optimal mental and physical well-being.  It is essential for anyone wanting to attain their optimal fitness level as well as for those who want to maximize the possibility of their potential in all areas of life.

EIGHT WAYS TO MANAGE YOUR STRESS / ANXIETY:

Everyone manages stress differently, and some strategies will work better for some than others, but whatever it takes, it is imperative that you experiment and discover which stress management tactics works best for you.  Below are a few suggestions of ways to manage stress that many people find helpful:

1. Create a consistent morning routine for your 15 minutes of the day that set you up for a successful day mentally and physically.
2. Build in more “white space” into your daily scheduling, allowing for cushion time between commitments and resisting the urge to overbook and overcommit yourself
3. Learn how to say “no” more often to the things in life that stress you out and “yes” to activities that promote personal growth and quality time with those you love.
4. Exercise on a daily basis
5. When feeling particularly stressed, go outside and take a walk or a jog. Fresh air and a change of environment can often alleviate stress.
6. Employ the use of a to-do list everyday to keep yourself on task and from feeling overwhelmed from the stress of having too much to do
7. Celebrate the small victories of life.  If you are on a weight loss journey, celebrate every small step that is positively working towards your ultimate goal instead of focusing on the big number that you want to lose.
8. Meditate, pray or write in gratitude journal on a daily basis.

LISTENER OF THE EPISODE:

Last February I went in the doctors office and weighed in at an 180 pounds. Being only 5 foot 5, this weight was extremely unhealthy. Before becoming an avid listener of your podcasts and a owner of your couch to half marathon app, I had cycles of weight loss and gain… And neither for the right reason. As I became more involved in my faith, and continued to listen to your podcasts and use your app as a running aid, I realized that taking care of my body was not supposed to be for looks, but for treating my body with the respect it deserves for being the ship to my purpose. The body, I now realize, is a temple for the soul being and it is our responsibility to nurture it and protect it, as you would your child. Since February, I have lost 20 lbs by changing minor things in my diet. Instead of avoiding foods that are bad, I just cut back on them- because my body deserves a treat sometimes, too. I came to grips with giving my body the fuel and vitamins it needs to function at optimum level. So, as I continue my goal, I’d like to thank you for aiding in not only in weight loss, but spiritual and mental growth as well. I finished my first 10K and love running as well. I’m sure you get several emails and hope you have the time to read this.

Your work is inspirational and I am so thankful that you said YES to your calling and YES to growth- as you are helping others on their walk as well.

Sincerely,

Ana
