You Can Reduce Stress: Take Time for Your Heart | St. Elizabeth Healthcare

Dr. Peterson, an Interventional Cardiologist at St. Elizabeth, highlights the significant impact of stress on heart health. While stress is a normal part of life, chronic stress can take a heavy toll on your body, especially your heart. Identifying stressors and developing healthy ways to manage them is essential for maintaining overall well-being. Stress triggers the release of hormones that cause a fight-or-flight response, which is useful in immediate danger but harmful when experienced constantly. Chronic stress can increase blood pressure, raise inflammation, cause irregular heart rates and arrhythmias and decrease blood flow to the heart. Stress hormones are also linked to weight gain and disrupted sleep. Learning to reduce stress is crucial for heart health. Dr. Peterson encourages taking breaks and focusing on self-care, reminding us that it's okay to prioritize our well-being.
