052: Tips to manage anxiety during a challenging time with Ali Damron, LAc

Hi friends! I’m so excited to have my friend Ali Damron back on the show to chat about anxiety, sleep, supplements, and navigating a challenging time. There’s a LOT going on right now and it’s so important to show ourselves grace as we make it through this crazypants and stressful time in our lives.

Take a listen here:

We chat about:

– How to deal with the anxiety around this time

– Sleep trouble and stress-related insomnia

– Distractions for your mental health and practices to use now

– Grief that we’re feeling through this

Here’s a little bit about Ali if you haven’t met her before:

I am a wife, mother to two sweet little boys, a licensed acupuncturist and a certified personal trainer for over 11 years. I value health and family more than anything else.  It’s my mission to educate women about the importance of health and teach them how to be healthy. There is so much information and misinformation out there that most of the women I work with are confused and don’t know what to believe or how to get healthy.  I work with women to provide natural approaches to healing and get them looking and feeling their best. I offer lots of services including personal health consultations, courses, and resources for pregnant women, birth attendants and birth professionals to teach them acupressure points so they can feel empowered with their own health.

You can connect with Ali on her website, Instagram, Facebook, and through her podcast.
