Stress isn't just about being busy or overwhelmed it often comes from emotions like fear, guilt, and sadness. These feelings can quietly affect your body over time, leading to things like low energy, poor digestion, or even chronic health issues. Understanding where stress comes from can help you start making small changes that really matter.

One way to feel better is by shifting how you think about things. Instead of focusing on mistakes or worries, try noticing what you're doing well. Letting go of what you can’t change and being kind to yourself can go a long way in helping both your mind and body feel more balanced.
