Trying Times – How to Deal with Change

Stress from both positive and negative change can have immediate and long- term effects. Stress inhibits digestion and absorption of nutrients, impairs your body’s ability to ward off germs, can cause insomnia and worsen pre- existing health conditions. If you’re also engaging in unhealthy behaviors and poor self-care, you’re at an even higher risk for illness or injury.
Mental abilities can be affected as well. When you’re preoccupied, worried and focused on the future instead of the present, it’s much hard-er to concentrate and/or apply your brainpower to what’s in front of you.
