Ever wonder what's actually happening inside your body when you feel stressed? It's more than just a feeling. We dive deep into the fascinating, complex, and sometimes bizarre physiological timeline of your body's stress response. From the immediate rush of adrenaline to a "secret" a-ha moment about heart transplants, we break down what happens in the first millisecond all the way to the first 30 minutes. You'll learn the difference between good stress (the kind that helps you nail a presentation) and bad stress (the kind that can wreak havoc on your health).

This video is the first part of a two-part series, so be sure to subscribe to find out how to combat chronic stress in the next video!
