SUMMARY: This content discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Meditation can help regulate emotions, improve concentration, and enhance overall well-being. It activates the body's relaxation response, reducing the production of stress hormones and lowering blood pressure. Regular meditation practice can rewire the brain to be more resilient to stress and increase cognitive function. Mindfulness meditation, in particular, encourages staying present and focusing on the moment, which can prevent rumination and negative thought patterns. Overall, meditation is a powerful tool for promoting mental health and emotional balance.

SUMMARY: Today on WXX Expert Talk, host Michelle Eubank welcomes S Young from The Window Source Gulf Coast to discuss the importance of having hurricane-resistant windows on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. S Young explains that homes in the area need to meet a design pressure of around dp50 to withstand 200 mph winds. Many homes still have old aluminum windows that do not meet this standard. The Window Source Gulf Coast offers specials on new windows, including impact glass and hurricane-resistant options like fabric shield or hurricane shutters. Homeowners can contact them for more information or visit their website for financing options.
