In this episode, we explore the difference between eustress - good stress - and distress, understand why our experience of stress is rooted in our perception of it, and understand how we can harness stress as a powerful force for motivation, energy and well-being.  Watch on Netflix: HERE We unpack: • The difference between eustress - good stress - and distress• Why avoiding stress can actually cause cognitive decline• The dangers of too much stress on our bodies and minds• The Yerkes-Dodson law and the ‘sweet spot’ of stress• How we can reframe our approach to stress to create our own ‘biology of courage’ Follow Jemma on Instagram: @jemmasbeg Follow the podcast on Instagram: @thatpsychologypodcast Subscribe on Substack: @thepsychologyofyour20s For business: psychologyofyour20s@gmail.com  Our favourite sources:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcGyVTAoXEU&vl=en https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8384975/ https://www.healthline.com/health/yerkes-dodson-law   The Psychology of your 20s is not a substitute for professional mental health help.
