Stress and nervous system health are closely linked, but the pressure to follow every wellness trend can become another source of overwhelm. We explore how fear and chronic stress affect the body, when healthy habits become too much, and which simple routines may support better sleep and resilience.
Kerstin Lindquist, a certified health coach and former QVC host who now works as a wellness expert, joins me to discuss wellness marketing, the control and fear cycle, and why listening to your body may matter more than chasing the next product or protocol.
