Mastering Self Reliance At Sea
Hey everyone, let’s talk about stress—
the silent driver behind so many of our daily struggles.
Whether you're on a superyacht navigating rough seas, leading a high-stakes expedition, or managing a luxury retreat, stress can hit you hard.
Here’s the thing: Stress isn’t just in your head. It’s deeply rooted in your body, specifically in your nervous system.
When you’re constantly on alert, your body stays in a state of fight-or-flight, releasing stress hormones like cortisol.
Over time, this can dysregulate your nervous system, leading to chronic stress, anxiety, and even burnout.
But here’s the good news: By understanding how your nervous system works, you can start to take control of your stress.
It’s about recognizing the signs early and knowing how to bring your body back into balance.
Like knowing the signs of fight or flight. You need to understand when you, and your crew are getting high on stress.
In the coming days, I’ll be sharing some key strategies for managing stress and strengthening your nervous system.
Because in your high-stakes world, staying calm and collected isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential.
Stay tuned and take care of your stress levels, and most of all your nervous system, because it’s taking care of you.
