If you’ve ever wanted to just tune it all out, trust me—you are not alone. The nonstop headlines, the urgency, the crises—it can feel like too much for anyone’s nervous system. But today, I’m unpacking why avoiding the news isn’t the long-term solution and how we can build a healthier, more resilient relationship with the world around us. Together, we’ll explore what happens in your brain and body when the news feels like too much, and I’ll share practical tools to help you stay informed without feeling emotionally drained. I’m pulling some insights straight from my <a href="https://honeymustardmedia.etsy.com/listing/1866711800" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Coping with Political Stress & Anxiety Workbook</a>, including setting media boundaries, choosing calm sources, and reflecting on your emotional responses. This episode is your invitation to stop running from the noise and learn how to walk through it with intention—building strength, resilience, and clarity along the way. <a href= "https://lisamustard.freshlearn.com/politicalstress">Not a therapist but want the Ebook Workbook?

Always seek the advice of your own licensed mental health provider or medical professional regarding your specific situation. While I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, and my guests are also professional counselors, the discussions in this podcast are meant to offer general insights and should not be taken as personalized therapeutic advice. Listening to this podcast does not establish a therapist-client relationship with me or any of my guests. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis or have thoughts of harming yourself or others, please contact a mental health professional, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room immediately. You can also reach out to a crisis hotline, such as the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 in the United States, for immediate support. Every individual’s journey is unique, and what works for one person may not be suitable for another. Please use discretion and seek appropriate care as needed.
