The Effects of Stress on Your Pain and How Yoga can Help

See this content in the original post

Maybe back pain is just one of the many "conditions" you have. Do you also have high blood pressure, insomnia, irritable bowel syndrome, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and/or pain in other areas of the body like the neck, shoulder and knees?

If so, STRESS may be the root cause.

In this video, you will learn how low levels of chronic stress keeps the nervous system on alert all day and all night long. Over time, stress can take its toll on the body. Yoga is one way to create awareness of your stress triggers. Awareness is the only way that you can take charge of your own health.

To create Awareness you need to start a mindful practice, which can be as simple as taking 3 deep breaths or begin meditating. But you NEED to start today! Watch my YouTube video on how to start meditating, even when you have pain.

Namaste,

Stephanie
