This episode is part of a mini series about mindfulness and stress. In this episode (Part I), we explore preventative selfcare practices which can help us to build resilience, feel generally calmer and more grounded.

In Part II (episode 10), we will look at specific mindfulness practices, which we can use when stress starts arising in our body. We will learn how to intercept the 'fight or flight' response before it gains momentum so that we can choose to react to stress in a more intentional way.
