Today’s Focus: Psychoneuroimmunology – How Your Mind Shapes Your Immunity.
Did you know chronic stress doesn’t just weigh on your mind—it rewires your body?
The Science:
Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) reveals how stress hormones like cortisol:
➡️ Trigger inflammation (linked to autoimmune flares)
➡️ Weaken infection defence (why you get sick when overwhelmed)
➡️ Aggravate gut issues (stress + IBS = vicious cycle)
Relatable Examples:
That "mysterious" rash that appears during crazy work deadlines.
Catching colds every time you’re emotionally drained.
Autoimmune flare-ups after prolonged anxiety
The Hope: Small shifts create big changes:
✅ Daily 5-minute breathwork (cuts inflammatory markers)
✅ Prioritizing sleep (repairs immune dysfunction)
✅ Therapy for stress (alters physiological responses)
Your health isn’t fate—it’s a conversation between your mind & body.
