Stress and relationships
In the our lives, relationships play a vital role in shaping our emotional well-being and overall happiness. Whether it's our bond with a romantic partner, family members, friends, or colleagues, the connections we form with others significantly impact our mental and emotional state. However, like any aspect of life, relationships are not immune to challenges, and one of the most common and formidable obstacles is stress. Stress can permeate every layer of a relationship, exerting its influence in subtle and overt ways, and its effects can be profound. Understanding the dynamics of stress and how it intertwines with relationships is crucial for fostering healthy and resilient connections with those we hold dear. Today we will delve into the interplay between stress and relationships, uncovering its causes, manifestations, and, most importantly, discovering strategies to navigate these tumultuous waters to build stronger, more fulfilling bonds with our loved ones.

She discovered the fact that heart disease is the #1 life stealer of men and women, but when research revealed that women surpassed men of dying of cardiovascular disease, it became apparent after her medical moment of Atrial fibrillation, that she needed to get the word out! Her message is delivered in an engaging way by drawing from her years as a jockey, and the analogies of both careers by highlighting lessons learned from horses and clients, then share holistic selfcare modalities to help reduce stress and find balance and enjoy peace.

Their insights and perspectives promise to make this show truly remarkable. For more info: https://ashhollowband.com/
The Damage of Hidden Stress
On this show, host Will Heckman and Douglas Mulhall have a conversation about whether we could live longer and better if the damage triggered by the hidden stress that affects all of us was reversed.That is the question our guest asks in his new book.“Discovering the Nature of Longevity-Restoring the Body by targeting hidden Stress.”Also, we discuss why standard therapies temporarily relieve heart disease symptoms but don't repair the damage. Treatments still mostly focus on cholesterol, hypertension, age, and smoking, but the process is also driven by our body's reaction to environmental stress.
Stress and our Education System
On this show, host Will Heckman and Dr. Yair Maman have a conversation about a topic that is near and dear to our hearts, education, and the educational system. Few people outside of the system realize the pressures put on those who are involved with the teaching and care of our young adults. And for the students, previous research indicates that unchecked academic-related stress can reduce academic achievement, decrease motivation and increase the risk of school dropout. The longer-term impacts, which include reduced likelihood of sustainable employment, cost governments billions of dollars each year. A conversation about the impact of academic-related stress, including a discussion of the impact on students’ learning capacity and academic performance, mental health problems, such as depression and anxiety, sleep disturbances, and substance use is long overdue.
Wake up to the problem of insomnia and stress.
A Free Podcast With Guests Rita Hitching and Dr. Lisa Lampe.
On this show, we will be talking about one of the worst problems that I think stress can cause, insomnia!
High levels of stress impair sleep by prolonging how long it takes to fall asleep and fragmenting sleep. Sleep loss triggers our body's stress response system, leading to an elevation in stress hormones, namely cortisol, which further disrupts sleep.
So, what do we do? Well, I’m glad you asked and you have come to the right place. AIS has many articles about sleep, one of them was written by one of our guests today for the Winter 2022 issue of Contentment magazine which can be found at stress.org.

Workplace Stress
Workplace Stress
A Free Podcast With Guest Nick Jonsson
In this episode of Finding Contentment, host Will Heckman and special guest Nick Jonsson talk about job stress. Numerous studies show that job stress is far and away a significant source of stress for American adults and has escalated progressively over the past few decades. Increased levels of job stress as assessed by the perception of having little control but lots of demands have been demonstrated to be associated with increased heart attack rates, hypertension, and other disorders.
Nick Jonsson, #1 International Best Selling Author, is dedicated to raising awareness and eliminating the stigma around the phenomenon of executive loneliness. He has identified that feelings of isolation and depression—personal struggles that he, himself, has had to grapple with and conquer—are much more widespread than we think.
As the co-founder and managing director of the Singapore branch of EGN (Executives’ Global Network), Nick is passionate about matching senior executives in confidential peer groups where they can help each other face challenges and identify opportunities.
Exercise for stress relief
When it comes to good health and stress relief, physical activity matters. Exercise and physical activity improve overall fitness, body mass index, and cardiovascular and muscular health.
But just as important is that studies show exercise can relieve stress, reduce depression, and improve cognitive function.
Joining host Will Heckman is someone that has made fitness and exercise his life’s work.
Bryce Henson is CEO of Fit Body Boot Camp, the world’s fastest-growing fitness boot camp franchise.
Stress and Mental Health in the Workplace
In this episode of Finding Contentment, host Will Heckman and special guest Yasmine Mustafa talk about workplace safety and stress.
Harassment and assaults against staff are rising. How workers feel impacts their performance, wellness, and liability risk. Same for an organization’s attraction, retention, and productivity of employees.
People feeling stress about safety in the workplace has recently led to a significant increase in mental health issues. Nearly half of Americans in a Kaiser Family Foundation poll said their mental health took a turn for the worse. And in April 2020, the month after the coronavirus infested the U.S., the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Hotline experienced a 1,000% year-over-year increase.
To help relieve some of that stress, many organizations already recognize the value of supporting their workers’ mental health through their employee benefits.
Stress and Pain: You’re not broken!
A Free Podcast With Guest Rick Olderman
In this episode of Finding Contentment, host Will Heckman and special guest Rick Olderman talk about pain and its relation to stress, and how it affects our everyday lives. Living with pain day after day can be stressful. It can also lead to mental health problems. In fact, one-third of adults with arthritis have anxiety or depression.
Stress has been known to make chronic pain worse. Stress can cause your muscles to tense or spasm, which increases pain. When you feel stressed, levels of the hormone cortisol rise. This can cause inflammation and pain over time.
Rick graduated from physical therapy school in 1996. After failing to help his patients adequately, he realized that standard physical therapy education left him unprepared to truly help people with chronic pain or nagging injuries. As a result, Rick has spent the last 20+ years developing his pioneering approach.
The Perils of Unchecked Stress
In this episode of Finding Contentment, host Will Heckman and special guest Eric Kussin talk about Eric's journey from a severe bout of PTSD, along with symptoms of anxiety and depression. His issues came essentially “out of nowhere” and left him almost permanently in bed, and with severe cognitive impairment, for just over two and a half years. Listen as he speaks about how he found a way to climb out of his abyss, he vowed to spend the rest of his life focused on changing the global conversation through mental health advocacy.
During his battle, Eric was pumped with over 50 combinations of psychotropic drugs, 22 sessions of TMS therapy, and 12 sessions of ECT “shock therapy“ only to find himself worse off with each passing treatment.
Eric Kussin
Eric Kussin is a 20-year professional sports executive. After five years with the NBA League Office, he rose to the ranks with the expansion Chicago Sky, and Phoenix Suns. He then switched over to the NHL, working with the New Jersey Devils, & Florida Panthers.

Stress and our Physicians
On her website our guest, Dr. Tammie Chang wrote:
Women who become physicians are suffering from record alarming rates of burnout, emotional exhaustion, stressors, and even suicide. What we do not learn as students, trainees, or attending physicians — what is not imparted to us in our long and arduous education and training — is the understanding that in order to best serve as the healers and physicians we have the potential to become, we have to first be strong and healthy in our own body, mind, and spirit.
“Do no harm” has to apply to ourselves first.
Listen to this great conversation that affects all of us.
Wellness and Well-being
A Free Podcast With Guest Ell Harlander, MEd, DAIS
Wellness has several dimensions, including emotional well-being (coping effectively with life and creating satisfying relationships) and physical well-being (recognizing the need for physical activity, healthy foods, and sleep), and being resilient. On her website, our guest wrote “Resilience is defined as the ability to navigate and recover from challenges”
It is a great conversation about wellness and well-being including conflict resolution and holding on to tension.
50 Years Lost in Medical Advance With Guest Dr. Lewis Coleman
A Free Podcast With Guest Dr. Lewis Coleman
Our guest wrote a book which describes what may one day be remembered as the most important theoretical advance in medical history. The worldwide warfare of the 20th century produced an era of research rigor, vigor, integrity, and progress that inspired a prominent physician researcher named Hans Selye to hypothesize that a “stress mechanism” regulates physiology and explains disease. His concept was and remains the most promising prospect for an effective theory of medicine, and it inspired an intense international search for the stress mechanism that was abandoned and mostly forgotten after years of fruitless failure.
However, powerful new theories typically arrive long before evidence becomes available to confirm them. Another 30 years of accumulating evidence from unrelated research has now enabled the Dr. Lewis Coleman to identify the stress mechanism. It explains physiology and disease, and fulfills all the predictions and expectations of previous stress researchers. It revolutionizes medicine and provide powerful new treatments that will enable health, longevity, and freedom from the eternal curse of disease, suffering, and premature death
Cooking with kids as a stress reliever
In this episode host, Will Heckman and guest Katie Kimball are talking about cooking as a stress reliever. Specifically cooking with our kids.
Making a home-cooked meal is a great way to make sure that our families are getting the proper nutrients and nourishment we need. But what might not be as obvious is that cooking (or baking) can also be an effective way to relieve stress. It’s an opportunity to be creative, stimulate the brain, and, if we involve them, connect with our kids. stress.org

Talking to Your Kids About Stress
A Free Podcast With Guest Dr. Cynthia Ackrill
In a new, free podcast from The American Institute of Stress, we discuss how research shows that HOW we talk about stress makes a big difference in how we experience it. Who knew? We were definitely not taught that or many other principles or skills that would help us negotiate real life and its challenges. Covid has certainly illuminated our shortcomings, leaving almost everyone more stressed! So, how can we leverage this latest research to empower our kids (and us) in the face of stress? Join us as we discuss approaches that will build your children’s resilience and empower them to thrive in the face of challenges.
Strategies for an age of Stress
In a new, free podcast from The American Institute of Stress, we discuss how our brains can evolve, but not as fast as our world is changing. This creates a mismatch with our environment. This is why AIS produced the documentary “Mismatched-your brain under stress” To combat this we need to know how our brains can get hijacked, what tools we can use to become better aligned with the way stress affects our body and mind, and an understanding of how to recognize and move beyond knee jerk reactions to achieve our full potential. Our guest Frank Forencich has just written a book called “Beware False Tigers: Strategies and Antidotes for an Age of Stress” which really speaks to this issue.
The stress of our police officers
Join Dr. Ron Rufo as he discusses how being a police officer today exposes the people we count on to serve and protect us to enormous amounts of stress. That was true back in the ’80s when I was part of the NYPD and seems even more so now.
Be it an officer patrolling a high-crime neighborhood in a big city, a small-town cop responding to a bar fight, or a homicide detective arriving at the scene of a multiple murder, the common factor in their jobs is stress. Let’s face it they work in environments where bad things happen. In fact, it is their job to run toward those bad situations, while others run away!
Music can help you escape stress.
In a new, free podcast from The American Institute of Stress, we discuss how music can reduce anxiety, blood pressure, and pain as well as improve sleep quality, mood, mental alertness, and memory. According to a 2013 Cochrane review of 26 studies involving more than 2,000 people, music reliably reduces anxiety among people preparing to undergo surgical operations. And the emotional benefits of music are not confined to the OR. The field of music therapy has exploded in recent decades, and trained music therapists are now helping people manage anxiety disorders and other physical or psychological conditions — everything from pain disorders to PTSD and of course stress.
Tim Ringgold is a board-certified music therapist, author, and host of the Reduce Your Stress Podcast and Summit. Tim is also an award-winning international speaker, having shared the stage with some of the top minds on music, the brain, and personal development, including Tony Robbins.

How To Stop Feeling So Stressed

All of these things and a lot of others have just added to our feeling so stressed. Listen to the insightful thoughts of our guest to find out how we can help ourselves to learn how to stop feeling so stressed.
Why the goal of "reducing stress" often doesn't work.
We will be talking with Tanya Peterson about Why the goal of "reducing stress" often doesn't work. What does it look like to eliminate stress in your life? No, it doesn’t look like a made-for-television movie. No, it doesn’t look like something only people with extra time and money can do. It looks like your life—but without any self-created stress triggers. We all need to develop a way to Identify stressors, and then have the tools to manage that stress.
