Episode 3491:
Doctor Jenny Brockis breaks down what severe chronic stress actually does inside the body and brain, from the toxic effect of cortisol on our neurons to the research linking repeated midlife stress with a higher risk of dementia. She also puts those findings in perspective rather than adding one more thing to worry about. Then she points to the healthy habits that bring stress back under control, including exercise, meditation, and talking to someone you trust.
