COMFORT FOODS & HOW TO EAT WHEN YOU ARE STRESSED

Ask Alina

Q: What do you eat when you are super stressed? Do you suggest any supplements? What about comfort foods?

A: Such a great question and so timely!
Usually when we are stressed we seek two energies – numbing/heavy feeling or high energy/lightness.
In this video/podcast I show you what I eat/take/do to get both of those energies. Actually I have been under a lot of stress this last week (that's why I didn't post anything then) so this is actually a recap of what I have been doing.

BONUS TIPS (that I didn't talk about in the video)
1. Studies have shown that smelling citrus can help boost your mood and relieve anxiety. So if life gives you lemons - take a deep breath in!
2. Which brings me to another point I didn't mention - deep breathing is super important when dealing with stress. You don't have to do it for a long time, even just a few deep breaths when you feel anxious can help!
