Without properly managing it, it can cost us our health and well-being.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent article from the <a href=\"https:\/\/restorativemedicine.org\/journal\/downregulating-chronic-stress-response-technology-assisted-mindfulness-meditation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Restorative Medical Journa<\/em>l<\/a>, the authors explored the impact of stress in modern life and the potential for technology-assisted mindfulness meditation to support a healthy response to it. Several well-known researchers\u2019 work in this area, Brosschot and his colleagues, were reviewed. These researchers have identified three mechanisms that cause an unhealthy, prolonged stress response:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Perseverative cognition: Constant thought about negative events in the past or in the future. Like Sapolsky, Brosschot argues that only humans possess the brain capacity to re-create representations from the past and to create potential representations of the future, both giving rise to anxious worrying. This perseverative cognition leads to increased physiological activity of the cardiovascular and endocrine systems.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Unconscious stress: Humans are not consciously aware of most of the brain\u2019s activity, which enables the body to physiologically react to stress without conscious awareness of a stress response taking place.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Stress as a default response when safety is not perceived: This stress response needs no stressor at all; it is simply always \u201con\u201d and stays on in the absence of obvious safety. It turns off when situations and surroundings are perceived as \u201csafe\u201d and turns back on again if the perception of safety disappears.4 <\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By understanding these sources, we can then work to find solutions to address them. In the article mentioned, it was a suggested that the answers were found in a paradigm shift away from managing stress and to <em>\u201cthe care and feeding of a healthy nervous system<\/em>.\u201d This could be accomplished through mindfulness and meditation, either with or without assisted technology.<\/p>\n<p>Among many experts, the underlying theme for coping with stress more effectively is enhancing our resiliency and reaction to it. I discussed this in my <a href=\"https:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/hormones-stress-high-cortisol-levels-naturopathic-doctor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">previous article<\/a> when I explored that how we view stressful events is what impacts physiological consequences, not necessarily the event itself. I also provided additional lifestyle approaches to downregulate our reactionary patterns and live more serenely.<\/p>\n<p>In my <a href=\"https:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/naturopathic-medicine-and-functional-medicine-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">naturopathic and functional medicine practice<\/a>, I also use essential oils to help my clients manage stress, balance cortisol and hormones levels, and rejuvenate their brain and body. I have found essential oils, along with mindfulness practices, to also \u201cfeed and care\u201d for the nervous system. This is because they also stop the stress cascade from the start by intervening at the level of stress perception.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/the-best-essential-oils-to-lower-cortisol-balance-hormones-and-help-reduce-stress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">In part I<\/a>, I highlighted some of the best essential oils from research to decrease cortisol and mitigate stress. I also offered several applications of ones that I often use in my practice, including clary sage, neroli, and jasmine.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in my latest post, I continue with more favorite essential oils from both the literature and my clinic that also have been shown to reduce stress, ease anxiety, lower cortisol, and reinstate hormonal harmony.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dr-lobisco.com\/essential-oils-stress-cortisol-levels-hormones-lavender-bergamot-rose\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a> to read more.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"vc_cta3-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Access Exclusive Content on Essential Oils and Start Using Them Safely with My Free Resource Guide!<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p data-fontsize=\"16\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1253 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920-239x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"239\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920-239x300.jpg 239w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920-815x1024.jpg 815w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920-768x964.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920-1223x1536.jpg 1223w, https:\/\/www.saratoga.com\/healing-health-wellness\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/125\/2020\/02\/essential-oils-2535233_1920.jpg 1529w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"post-inner\">\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" data-fontsize=\"16\" data-lineheight=\"24\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dr-lobisco.marketingscents.com\/cp\/23840\">Grab it here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Local Workshop: Introduction to Essential Oils Workshop<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">March 21st<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.ca\/e\/introduction-to-essential-oils-tickets-94470779645\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Learn more here.<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content entry-content single-post-content\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>This material is for information purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prescribe for any illness.
