The mind and body are interlinked, with examples such as butterflies in the stomach and racing heart demonstrating this connection. Regular deep breathing exercises and the 'stop, breathe, be' technique can help in harnessing this mind-body connection. Taking a few seconds to center oneself before a stressful situation can significantly reduce stress levels. Additionally, daily movement is beneficial for both the brain and the body, highlighting the importance of avoiding a sedentary lifestyle.
