92. Protect Your Peace to Prevent Disease with Dr. Gregg Jantz (RE-RELEASE)

Why Did I Get Cancer?

Clearing the Path: Eliminating Toxic Relationships for a Better Life

When your button pusher walks toward you, do you pretend not to see them?

Okay, maybe it's just me!

Before cancer, I had a handful of toxic people in my life. I didn't spend a lot of time with them, but when I did see them, I could feel my anxiety rising even before we got together!

When today's podcast guest, Dr. Jantz, mentioned that he wanted to do a podcast about the impact of toxic people on our health, I was all in!
Spending time with toxic people can affect your health in the following ways:

• It can increase your sympathetic response, leading to higher heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate.
• Your body may produce more stress hormones, which can cause inflammation.
• It can also damage your confidence and affect your sense of identity.
  

How do you move the toxic people out of your life, especially if they are family members?

Dr. Jantz suggested having a friend or spouse nearby when dealing with difficult family members at events. If you get upset, use a pre-agreed safe word to signal for support in removing yourself from the situation. With some pre-planning, you can avoid getting caught up in their negativity.

Listen to today's podcast to hear the rest of Dr. J.'s tips on dealing with toxic people.
