🍁🍂
It’s the start of the new term and we’re all feeling frantic - between early alarms, lost shoes, and new autumn schedules, back-to-school season leaves zero breathing room!!
It’s hard not to feel the stress of it all but remember, high stress levels in women aren’t just “part of life”—they’re a physical signal that your stress cycle needs closing.
When you’re constantly on for everyone else, your body pumps out cortisol without a chance to recalibrate.
So now the kids are back, take time out for yourself - it only takes 5 mins, a micro dose of self care ❤️
5 minutes sitting in your car alone
5 minutes of deep breathing before the school run
5 minutes with a coffee in the morning
5 mins hanging off a cliff top looking at the amazing view (!!!)
Small pauses lower cortisol, shift you out of fight-or-flight, and protect your energy.
