Breaking The GI Stress Cycle: How Stress Impacts Digestive Symptoms

This course is for anyone living with persistent digestive issues (like IBS, reflux, IBD, etc.). It’s especially helpful if you’ve tried everything from diet changes to supplements and still feel stuck. If you’ve ever sensed that stress plays a role in your symptoms but no one’s explained how or why, this course is for you. You’ll learn a science-backed framework called the GI Stress Cycle: a loop where stress, nervous system activation, and gut symptoms feed into each other through the gut-brain connection. Across six short lessons, you’ll explore: - How the mind-body connection impacts digestion, even when you don’t “feel” stressed - What happens in your nervous system & gut when stress becomes chronic - Your stress reaction style (Control, Submit, or Avoid) and how it shapes your symptoms - Simple, nervous-system-friendly ways to break the cycle & support gut healing By the end of the course, you’ll understand why symptoms flare even during calm periods, recognize how your unique stress patterns influence your gut-brain connection, and gain practical tools to help you calm your gut and shift your system toward healing.
