Learning to identify your responses to stress can be an effective tool for overcoming challenging times.
Imagine dealing with a car accident and a stressful work injury, all while navigating the pressures of frontline work during a pandemic. That's exactly what Jake, the host of 'Flight of Thoughts', faced recently. In this episode, he opens up about his personal journey through these challenges and shares how identifying stress responses can be a game-changer. Have you ever noticed how stress manifests in your body? Maybe it's a tightness in your shoulders or a knot in your stomach.
Jake explains how recognizing these physical signs can help you move from distress to a more balanced state of mind. He dives into the importance of monitoring your mental health, especially during the isolation and uncertainty brought on by Covid-19. Maintaining social connections and wellness routines can be crucial to avoid spiraling into a psychological crisis. And if you've ever considered using cannabis for stress relief, Jake has some thoughtful advice.
He suggests using it as a reward for psychological discipline or to enhance self-care, rather than as an escape. By balancing cannabis use with other self-care methods, you can avoid its potential negative impacts. Whether you're a first responder, healthcare worker, or just someone trying to cope with stress and trauma, Jake's insights offer practical tips and support. Tune in to learn how to build emotional resilience and manage stress effectively.
