I'm thrilled to dive into the world of anxiety management and nervous system regulation with the incredible Kristin Weitzel, who's doing wonders by combining her strength and peace into powerful strategies. If you've ever felt like your body's in a never-ending game of anxiety tag, this one's for you! Kristin is here to share her expertise on addressing that rollercoaster of emotions, particularly for us ladies navigating the tumultuous terrain of perimenopause and menopause. We discuss the ever-evolving societal pressures that heighten our stress levels and how these can sadly trigger anxiety explosions that disrupt our health and relationships. But fear not, because Kristin's wealth of knowledge on breathwork and cold exposure will have you conquering those inner storms with newfound resilience.

So what can you actually do about it? Well, it turns out that breathwork isn't just a fancy way of breathing—it’s a powerful tool to recalibrate your nervous system and bring serenity into your life, even amidst chaos. And if ice baths sound intimidating, Kristin breaks down the neurochemical magic that makes them a game-changer for mental clarity and mood enhancement. Kristin shares actionable methods to integrate these practices seamlessly into your day, showing us all how to transform anxiety into empowering calm. From using simple breath techniques to reconfiguring our stress responses, to the chilly embrace of cold therapy, you'll walk away from this episode ready to tackle even the craziest of days with grace.
