Hi Parents!

Has your teen ever complained of a stomachache before school, developed a headache during a stressful week, or seemed physically exhausted when they're emotionally overwhelmed?

Our emotions don't just exist in our thoughts. Stress and anxiety can affect how we experience our bodies and learning to recognize that connection can give teens another way to understand what they're going through.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Mary Sanders, a chiropractor, medical intuitive, and practitioner whose work brings together positive psychology, intuition medicine, energy medicine, spiritual embodiment, and meditation. Dr. Mary holds a Doctorate in Chiropractic from Logan College of Chiropractic, a Certificate in Positive Psychology from the Wholebeing Institute, and a Master's in Intuition Medicine®. She is also the host of the internationally acclaimed Energy Medicine podcast.

Together, we explore the mind-body connection and how emotional stress can influence physical sensations. Dr. Mary shares some of the less obvious ways stress may show up, how parents can help teens become more aware of what they're experiencing physically and emotionally, and why approaching those sensations with curiosity can be so valuable.

We also talk about nervous system regulation, meditation, energy medicine, and Dr. Mary's perspective on chakras and their role in overall well-being. Most importantly, we discuss practical ways parents can help teens slow down, notice what's happening within them, and develop greater awareness of the connection between their emotions and their bodies.

If your teen struggles with anxiety, stress, overwhelm, or physical symptoms that seem to intensify during difficult seasons, this conversation offers a different perspective on understanding the relationship between the mind, body and soul.

NEW: My 6-week parent program, The Parent’s Anxiety Toolkit™, is now open! If you’re raising an anxious teen and feeling overwhelmed, unsure what to say, or exhausted by the constant worry, this program will help you feel more calm, confident, and equipped with practical tools that actually work.

Big hugs,

Monica Crnogorac
