Hey EF Fam!

A cardiologist recently told Ben Lynch the author of Dirty Genes that his business was booming!

✔️Heart attacks,

✔️strokes,

✔️stints,

✔️clots.

The cardiologist said he has never been this busy before and it was a large percentage of 30-40 year old’s coming into his practice.

Guess what the reason for the increase in his business was?

STRESS.

Stress is a fact of nature in which forces from the inside or outside world affect the individual, either one’s emotional or physical well-being, or both. The individual responds to stress in ways that affect the individual, as well as their environment. Due to the overabundance of stress in our modern lives, we usually think of stress as a negative experience, but from a biological point of view, stress can be a neutral, negative, or positive experience.

The good news is… since you train at EarthFIT, you have already been putting your body under healthy/good stress that can protect and prevent you from the things listed above.

Check out below the impact your emotions can have on your heart.

“Take, for example, the way that emotions directly affect the heart. Sandeep Jauhar, the director of the heart failure program at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, has described their interconnection this way: “Fear and grief can cause profound cardiac injury….Blood vessels constrict, causing the heart to gallop and blood pressure to rise. In other words, it is clear that our hearts are extraordinarily sensitive to our emotions.” ​
