Engaged Wedding Library has called in the experts! We will feature helpful tips from local Licensed Psychologist, Jacqueline Dillon DeMarco, PhD!!! She will help us all de-stress through this process and focus on the FUN in planning!

“Wedding planning can be a lot of fun, but it can also be incredibly stressful for the bride.  The bride often plays the role of event planner, family therapist, and PR specialist.  It is important that you take care of yourself during this time.  Chronic stress can cause an excess of the hormone cortisol in the body.  Cortisol can suppress the immune system’s functioning and lead to many different health problems and risks.  Physical exercise, when used in moderation, is a healthy method of reducing stress in the body.  Also, health eating habits help the body stay replenished with the vitamins and nutrients it needs each day.  During times of stress, some people tend to eat too much or too little making themselves susceptible to illness and then more stress.  Taking care of your body physically will help your emotional health as well as your physical health. ” –Jacqueline McMarko, PhD
