The Stress–Trauma–Immune Connection
A gentle, science-informed guide to understanding how stress shapes the body
You’re not “just stressed,” and your symptoms aren’t happening without reason.
For many women, the nervous system has been carrying more than the mind acknowledges — often for years — and eventually, the body begins to speak through fatigue, inflammation, tension, and imbalance.
If you’ve felt “on alert,” overwhelmed, or disconnected from your body, or if you sense that stress is affecting your health in deeper ways… this guide will help you finally connect the dots.
This resource offers clear, compassionate, nervous-system-safe education to help you understand what your body may be holding — and how to begin supporting it gently.
