Your Guide To Naturally Reducing Stress

Stress is your body’s reaction to pressure from a situation or event. Stress isn’t inherently bad – its purpose is to make you more aware of your surroundings and is part of your body’s natural fight-or-flight response.


However, when stress is prolonged, it can take a toll on your mental, physical, and emotional health. Acute stress, or stress that only lasts for a short while, is usually not something you need to worry about.


Chronic stress, however, can have worrisome physical side effects. It can impact the duration and quality of your sleep and can cause high blood pressure, digestive issues, and even muscle pain and tension.


Thankfully, there are natural ways you can relieve stress, effectively and at home.

4 Common Ways Stress Affects Your Body

gut health issues

Gut Health Issues

Overproduction of cortisol, the stress hormone, can lead to digestive disorders like gastritis, ulcerative colitis, and more. Since gut health is important to your foundational health, getting stress under control should be a priority in your wellness regimen.

risk of heart disease

Risk Of Heart Disease

If you experience prolonged stress, your cardiovascular health can also be impacted. Issues such as high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes can be exacerbated by chronic stress. To avoid these diseases, soothing your anxiety is essential. 

accelerated aging

Accelerated Aging

As stress wears on the body, it can lead to oxidative stress – which speeds up the impacts of aging. Your appearance may be impacted, leading to wrinkles, hair loss, acne, eczema, and even psoriasis. We want you to feel your best – and for most of us, looking our best is a huge factor!

decreased mental health

Decreased Mental Health

Short-term stress will impact your mental health briefly, but you can expect to recover. However, when your stress becomes chronic, it may develop into prolonged anxiety, depression, and could lead to other personality disorders. 

WHAT ARE YOUR NEXT STEPS FOR RELIEVING STRESS?

AT WELL THEORY, OUR GOAL IS TO HELP YOU CURATE A LIFE LIVED WELL – IN A LASTING, HOLISTIC WAY.

1. Make Sleep Your First Priority


Getting enough sleep will lessen the overall impact of stress. When you aren’t experiencing sleep deprivation, you’re able to process stressful events better and with a clearer mind. This will help you feel less overwhelmed by stressful events.

2. Start A Therapeutic Practice


Take time away from a stressful day to prioritize self-care. Set aside time for daily yoga by setting boundaries for yourself to not work late or over-commit to social engagements when you’d rather curl up with a book. If you need to talk to a mental health professional, make time to do so. Set aside time where you can simply relax and focus on being present.

3. Change Your Diet


Processed “junk” foods can seem appealing when you’re under stress, but excess sugar and carbohydrates can actually create more stress within your body – worsening your anxiety. A balanced diet can level your mood, boost immunity, and lower blood pressure.
4. Exercise Everyday


As you begin to exercise more, it’s normal to feel some muscle soreness. But if left unchecked, it could keep you from committing to daily exercise, or even lead to injury if you’re fatigued. Make sure you’re stretching before and after exercise, and optimize your recovery by taking supplements geared for recovery – like Tart Cherry Extract and CoQ10.

5. Consider Supplementation


Getting adequate nutrition is one of the best ways to prepare your body to combat stress. Fill gaps in your diet with a well-rounded multivitamin – and consider natural stress-relieving supplements, like Omega-3, to assist in your anti-stress routine.

Well Theory: Founded To Support Your Health Goals

Dr. Warner founded Well Theory according to her beliefs about functional medicine, or functional wellness, verses conventional medicine.

Take Charge Of Your Health With Well Theory
Conventional medicine often overlooks holistic, long-term lifestyle changes in favor of prescribing heavy pharmaceuticals, recommending harsh and invasive treatments like surgeries, and more in an attempt to stop pain or disease as it occurs.


Find Wellness Alternatives That Work – For You.
I think we all know that conventional and modern medicine is reactionary and piecemeal, whereas good medicine should be proactive and encompass the whole of you and your body’s systems.


How We Support You On Your Wellness Journey:
Functional healing focuses more on supporting an already healthy lifestyle – or adapting routines to create a healthier way of living – instead of merely responding to illness and injury with treatments designed to only address symptoms.


At Well Theory, we believe that you are ultimately in charge of accomplishing your health goals. We just give you the tools and resources you need to get started towards a path to better overall wellness.

We believe that you should be empowered in your health journey.
