Many patients come to us having been through severe stress. These very unfortunate events in life are not only unpleasant to go through at the time that they are occurring, but also they can remodel our brain. Many of our patients who have been through atrocious stressors will produce heightened responses to stress for the remainder of their lives to seemingly low stress environments.
Today we will discuss the brain chemistry involved in this process and tips you can use on a daily basis to nullify the destructive effects of stress in your life.
Therefore, tune in and enjoy. Please forward us any questions at www.powerhealthtalk.com or go to our Power Health Facebook page http://powerhealthreno.com/Facebook
