  Speaker 1: of July weekend.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of a weird weekend. We had
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: rain and stuff. And here's the thing, at the end
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: of the day, I feel very blessed. You know that
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: the biggest problem we have is we didn't get to
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: shoot off fireworks when there are people in Texas who
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: literally had floods like blowing through and taking everything they own,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: and so we're very fortunate that our our big problem is, oh,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: we didn't get to shoot off some fireworks.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we were.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Talking about that beforehand, and that's kind of what made
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: me think, like, maybe we should talk about stress today.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Stress.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Who me was? It sounds like you guys tell a
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: little bit of stress, So let's talk about that.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Because stress there are things that when you're having a
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: lot of stress in your life, it can affect your health,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: can't it.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Right, You know, stress is normal. We're always going to
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: have stress. It's just it's how we're managing or coping
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: with our stress.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: You know. Basically, stress is our body's response to something.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: We either have the fight or flight mode that kicks in.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: You know, thing that tiger in the room, run found
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: or fight. All right, that's like a normal stress response.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: We don't have tigers, but we still have stressors and
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: we still react and still have that same stress response.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: The problem is, if we're having that same response.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: All day, every day, our adrenalines on overdrive, our drenals
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: are working way too hard. You might have heard this
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: thing called a drenal fatigue. Yeah, you know, that's when
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: we've been in stress mode for way too long and
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: our body is just getting tired. So if you're in
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: if you're starting to feel like that, you know, you
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: don't wait until things start falling apart.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: You know, you feel like you're stressed all the time.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: You really got to start looking at what can I
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: do to help alleviate my stress. Is this something that's
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: gonna be done short term, like oh I just got
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: to get through this project and we're good. Or is
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: this like oh, things are just super stress. Well, I
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: don't know when it's gonna end, you know, is it
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: gonna be short term or long term? And if it's
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: gonna be long term putting together some things that are
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: gonna help with alleviating or at least managing your stress.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: We can't get rid of it, it's just how we
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: respond to that stress that's important.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: And part of your body responding to anything is your
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: body communicating with your body. Because if you've got some
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: issues that are kind of roadblocks on your little nerves
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: nervous system going up and down your body. If there's
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: roadblocks causing problems, that's going to cause issues whether you
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: have stress or not.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: Right, that's not going to help either.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: We've talked a lot about the nervous system and how
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: the nervous system, you know, controls and functions all these
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: different things in our body, and part of that is
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: our stress response.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: You know, the adrenal system is a hormone system.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Hormone systems are worked, or the nervous system controls all that.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: So if we're having a.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Dysfunction between our brain and say our adrenals or the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: pituitary gland where those hormones come out, you know, it
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: makes sense that we're going to have interrational response to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: a normal stimulus.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so what is something that the average person can
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: do if they feel like, hey, I kind of feel
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: like I'm living that way. First of all, they should
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: maybe try to adjust that. But what else can they do?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I definitely they always say taking like a break, you know,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: going on vacation, even if it's like a day break
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: or a weekend, you know, taking more time out of
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: your day to actually sit down and relax and get
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: away from whatever. That, you know, stressful situation is if
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: you can. Obviously sometimes you're in it and you can't
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: get rid of it, but making sure that you're getting
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: good quality sleep. If you're having a hard time shutting
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: your brain off, which you know that's some too, like
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I just.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Can't get to sleep.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Journaling can help, you know, writing all your problems down
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: that where you're not just sitting there spinning and thinking
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: about them, you know, doing something like yoga before bed,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: get off social media, stop doom scrolling before you go
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: to bed, shut the TV off.
