Ep. 12 | Identifying Soft-Addictions to Reduce Inflammation
“We may not be able to change the stressors that are in our world or in our lives, but we can control our choices—the choices that determine if we go down the path to illness or health.”
In this episode, Dr. Avanti explores the connection between stressors and inflammation, and how our daily choices are either supporting or weakening our health. Many of us resort to “soft addictions” such as overeating or cleaning incessantly when we are in a stress response, which increases inflammation. Learning healthy coping strategies is crucial for maintaining good health, and depending on the emotional response you experience (anxiety, anger, or sadness), the remedies will differ. Tune in to discover which foods, routines, and yoga practices can support you most!
