Stop the Insanity
Carrie will tease apart the relationship that stress has on our bodies and how contributory it is to obesity. Not only are we exposed to the stress around us in our daily lives, we have our own internal stress. Obesity is stressful all by itself, then we add the external factors leading to detrimental health consequences. Our chronic stress response plays a major role in disease development leading to higher morbidly and mortality rates, especially in the obese population. Let's get our stress under control with all the many tips that will be provided. Special thanks to RomanSenykMusic from Pixabay for the wonderful background music.
