<p>Our mood can be changeable throughout the day, as there are many factors that play a part in how we feel. It’s important to remember that it is normal to feel a wide range of emotions, it’s when one sticks around for a bit too long, we can find ourselves needing some extra support.</p>
<p>Some circumstances are outside our control, however depending on our resilience, we can find ourselves able to respond to these stressors as they arise a little better.</p>
<p>The basis for overall health and wellbeing is nutritious food, daily movement, sunlight, fresh air, and sleep. However, during times of increased pressure these things can be neglected.

<h3>The fight, flight, freeze, fawn response</h3>
<p>Have you heard about the ‘fight, flight, freeze, fawn’ response? It is your body’s natural response to stressors, and it is an evolutionary adaptation that keeps us from harm. The problem is that our modern lifestyles have multiple incidences of stressors right throughout the day, and our brains are sometimes not able to differentiate between an actual threat, and a stressful email or event.</p>
<p>Calming down this response is important for supporting the body’s resilience. Thankfully, research has found that practicing deep belly breathing, mindfulness, awareness, or meditation can support the nervous system to return from the ‘fight, flight, freeze, fawn’ response.</p>
<p>There are also many supplements and products that can support your body, mind, and soul during times of increased pressure, and support mood and healthy neurotransmitters.

<h3>Support during unsettling times</h3>
<p>Modern life stressors rarely involve running away from large animals, instead we often have multiple smaller incidents throughout the day – which over time can run us down leading to worry, overwhelm, and sadness.</p>
<p>Connection and support from friends and family is a vital part of being a human, reach out to others when you need a hand, and invest time in developing your relationships for a fulfilling and joyful life.</p>
