23. Fear, anxiety and your immune system

Welcome to episode 22 of The Clean Bee Podcast! Today's episode is a mix of a solo-sode as well as never before heard clips from an interivew with Naturopath Dr. Morgan Mostanto. Did you know that fear, stress and anxiety actually weakens your immune system? In a day and age where fear-based media is all around us, it's more important than ever to recognize what is serving us (and what is not). This is a topic very close to my heart and I'm excited to share this with you today.

+ A little bit of my background with journalism and how "fear" is what sells
