The Dr. Chalmers Show

Dr Chalmers Path to Pro - Panic Attacks and Stress
Panic attacks, anxiety, and stress are closely linked to both physical and mental health, working together rather than as separate issues. Improving nutrition, supporting detox, and addressing certain genetic factors can help restore balance in the body. Simple steps like staying hydrated, getting enough sleep, and replenishing key nutrients can make a big difference in mood and energy.
Just as important is learning to shift focus away from constant stress and toward the positive parts of life. Reframing challenges, practicing gratitude, and looking for opportunities in difficult situations can help break the cycle of fear, guilt, and sadness. When physical health and mindset are improved together, it creates a stronger foundation for long-term calm and resilience.
