Is friendship the medicine you are missing? We talk so much about supplements, food, exercise, and stress relieving strategies, but solid friendships are just as vital to our overall health, happiness and survival. As women, it's in our DNA that we are compelled to connect. We instinctually know that to survive, we need to nurture supportive relationships. In fact, it is shown that women are wired to seek connection when they are under stress, because when women feel secure in relationships and feel loved, they are able to release more of the calming and happy hormone, oxytocin. Releasing more "happy hormones" in the body, through attention, affection, and interaction, is healing for our adrenal glands and leads to optimal hormonal health and balance.
The best kind of friends to seek are the ones that influence you to have healthy thoughts, to eat nutritiously, to move often, and to live a healthy lifestyle. Today Jess and Cody share ways that you can make friends that will support your highest self and nourish and strengthen you. Friends are the family that we choose, so choose wisely. Your health and longevity is directly affected by who you surround yourself with.
