​Emotional Wellness 

​

I believe an important part of the conversation is often overlooked: emotional health and communication.

How you interpret stress, speak to yourself, communicate your needs, navigate conflict, and connect with the people closest to you can influence how much chronic stress you carry through your life.

And chronic stress is not simply an emotional experience. Prolonged psychological stress is associated with changes in sleep, cardiovascular health, immune function, metabolic health, inflammation, and other systems involved in long-term health.

That is why I look at longevity from both sides: the physical environment you create for your body and the emotional environment you create for your life.
