View bestselling author and trauma-informed health strategies, Parijat Deshpande in this session to learn about the hidden realities of stress physiology. Through a combination of science, research, and riveting anecdotes, she will bust commonly held myths about stress, review why stress is not a mental heath issue or a relaxation issues and show audience members how understanding the intersection between stress and hypertension can help you empower your patients for an even healthier pregnancy.
