Episode notes
Resilience vs. Sensitivity
- Stress resilience and sensitivity exist on a continuum, varying based on the specific insult.
- Being sensitive to some things (like alcohol) and resilient to others (like exercise) is crucial.
CO2, Stress, and the Body
- CO2 levels have a bidirectional relationship with psychological and physical states.
- Anxiety affects CO2, and changes in CO2 can induce anxiety, impacting decisions and physical reactions.
Managing Stress and Tech
- Cultivate resilience to daily stressors while remaining sensitive to important signals.
- Don't outsource physiological awareness to technology; use it for calibration, not constant monitoring.
