Show Notes
Welcome to the **Somerset Emotional Wellbeing (SEW) podcast**!
In this episode, our hosts **Dr. Andrew Tresidder** and **Dr. Peter Bagshaw** use their expertise to discuss how we **adapt to change** as we enter **the new normal**.
During the conversation, they cover **why we feel stressed when things change**, **breathing exercises that can help us cope**, **how adapting to change involves adjusting to feelings of loss** and much more as they dig deep into their experience as doctors and their own lives to share their expert insight.
