Stressful feelings are all part of life — that we all experience. Yet they trigger a release of adrenaline and cortisol — our body’s natural stress hormones. Aside from getting us ready to fight or flee, these hormones temporarily raise blood sugar levels, which, over time, may lead to greater hunger. Chronic stress can also interfere with digestion, sleep, and immune function. And stressful thoughts interfere with the more creative, resourceful, and logical parts of your brain that can help you problem-solve.
