Understanding Stress and Its Impact on Adult Health

Chronic stress impacts more than just your mood; it profoundly affects your physical health, especially after age 35. At Vital Spindle, we delve into the science behind stress, revealing how it can disrupt sleep, influence weight, compromise immunity, and even impact hormonal balance during pivotal life stages like perimenopause and andropause.

Distinguishing between acute and chronic stress is vital for effective management. Our evidence-based approach highlights the measurable benefits of mindfulness, not just for momentary calm, but for long-term stress reduction and overall holistic health. We empower you with the knowledge to understand your body's responses and the tools to regain control.
