We often think of stress as big, dramatic moments, like panic, overwhelm, emotional breakdowns.

But the truth is that stress is often subtle, sneaky, and chronic.


In this episode, we explore:

🧠 How stress affects your brain and body, even when you don’t realise it

😴 The lesser-known signs of chronic stress, including trouble sleeping, irritability, brain fog, and more

🧘‍♀️ How yoga helps you build nervous system resilience and break the stress cycle

🔁 Why you don’t have to “wait until things calm down” to start feeling better

If you’ve ever said “I’m fine” while secretly feeling frazzled or exhausted… this one’s for you.
