Podcast episode about being on the edge in Harvesting Happiness, hosted by Lisa Cypers Kamen with Meg Arroll PhD

Out of Sorts and on the Edge with Dr. Meg Arroll

Original Air Date Wednesday, April 3, 2024.

Have you ever been frustrated while driving? There was no major accident, and no one walked out in front of you, but the driver ahead of you kept changing speed for no reason, and you wonder why this has to happen every day. Agh! Research shows that these chronic irritations or tiny traumas can build up in our system and cause more disruption than a major life trauma.

To discover how to recover and repair from chronic stressors, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with psychologist, scientist, and author specializing in health and well-being, Dr. Meg Arroll.

From her book, Tiny Traumas: When You Don’t Know What’s Wrong, But Nothing Feels Quite Right, Dr. Arroll shares her three-step process for building a strong psychological immune system by resetting and rebooting when we feel out of sorts.
