😮‍💨 Feeling more stressed lately? You’re not alone.

The holiday rush, changing weather, and busy schedules can all take a toll. But here’s something many people don’t realize: chronic stress can weaken your immune system.

When stress hormones stay high, your body produces fewer immune cells, making it harder to fight off seasonal bugs.

💛 Try this: build small moments of calm into your day — a walk outside, deep breathing between tasks, or turning off notifications for an hour.

💬 What’s one way you hit pause when life gets hectic?
