We’ve been told that more is better when it comes to exercise—but what if that’s not true for your nervous system?

In Episode 13 of Master Stress with Dr. S, we reframe how we think about movement. This isn’t about chasing calories or pushing harder—it’s about aligning with your body’s needs, rhythms, and signals.

🎧 Listen to Episode 13: 

In this episode, I cover:

✔️ How different types of movement impact your nervous system.

✔️ Why intense exercise can sometimes do more harm than good.

✔️ Gender-specific considerations that most workout plans ignore.

✔️ How to adapt your routine through different life stages.

✔️ Why movement should be seen as medicine—not punishment.

Whether you're a gym lover, a yoga fan, or someone rebuilding their relationship with exercise, this episode offers a refreshing, science-backed perspective.

Movement isn’t a one-size-fits-all prescription—it’s a conversation with your body.

When you listen to your nervous system, adapt with intention, and move with kindness, exercise becomes more than a routine. It becomes a form of healing.

Here’s to movement that nourishes, not depletes.

With love,

Dr. Safia
