Stress — a whole body response

Stress in itself isn’t a bad thing. In short bursts, it is a normal and necessary physiological response, it can sharpen focus, mobilise energy and help us rise to a challenge.

It is when stress becomes chronic, or we have suffered past trauma, that the body becomes locked in a hyper-vigilant state. Cortisol becomes elevated, the nervous system braced, digestion compromised, nutrients depleted and the breath becomes shallow and restricted. Together this can slowly erode your health, energy and sleep.

Tackling chronic stress means gradually working at every level, physical, mental and emotional. I support you every step of the way to feel happy, healthy calm and in control.
