Stress is the aspect of anxiety that we feel in our body. Worry is about thoughts, but stress is how our muscles get tense, our breathing gets tight, we feel achy, and our hands sweat. Stress is the physiological response to perceived danger. The good news is you can train your mind and body to be calm by doing simple activities throughout the day.

About Me:
I’m Emma McAdam. I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have worked in various settings of change and growth since 2004. My experience includes juvenile corrections, adventure therapy programs, wilderness therapy programs, an eating disorder treatment center, a residential treatment center, and I currently work in an outpatient therapy clinic.
In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life’s direction.
And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist/believe

Now I understand why yoga helps me with my stress 😂
I have always struggled with anger , resentments, and unforgiveness. I have been working on it with a therapist and 12 step sponsor, and it is getting better. I was told that resentments only hurt you, not the wrongdoers. I had to write down my resentments and how they affected me to see the damage to motivate me to let go. I also had to write down my part in the resentments so I could see where i was in the wrong, make amends, change behaviors, build my character and reconcile relationships if appropriate. Obviously there are some situations you don’t play a part like if you were abused. I really get into psychology and human behavior so I like to understand why people act how they do for example mental illness. It helps to have compassion on them and to wish them well. This is NOT justifying or condoning it just helps to understand, have compassion, and wish them well. Its also not good to get revenge, not only because of consequence but they will get their karma and there will be justice. If it motivates them to change and make anends be happy for them.
I’m so far out in my stress, this only helped very little, yet it helped, guess I have to try more to try more to………..
260 bucks a month is a car payment what you mean affordable counceling lol

Im a kid who has ADHD ; anxiety issues and i always find a reason to be scared and to be stressed . My family environment doesn’t help too ; but this is so useful
I am not okay,
and I don’t have anyone to tell it too.
I went from 6 to 4. Thank you ❤
Well what I do is I just keep blowing a few times and I just hold my breath, plug my nose for about 10 sec then blow it all out, with my mouth closed.
Damn it works!
shake your ass little bit also
Helped ❤🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽🙌🏾
I’m guessing it would be better to do these even when unstressed, in prevention. This got me from an 8 to a 4. Big help, but I hope it doesn’t lose in effectiveness over time.
It works it calms my mind I feel less stressed❤
WOW. Mind blown. Something so simple yet effective. Thank you! ❤
came here bc i keep getting mad at my family members even when i dont want to and keep crying for no reason 😔😔
Thank you so much! Great stress relief tools 👍
To relief we use stress support or ashwagandha cap from planet ayurveda
I didn’t realise how bad my stress was until I started crying in the middle of shaking my arms.
0:18 For me, a stress is for a thought or a mind, but not for a body.
Thank you I’ve been suffering
Why feel sometimes different 😢
