WHAT IS STRESS?
Stress is our body's reaction to feeling threatened or under pressure with whatever our everyday life can throw at us. When we experience stress our bodies release a hormone called adrenaline which gives us a boost to motivate or act quickly. Too much stress can have a detrimental effect on the mind and body.
Stress affects our emotions, our bodies and our behaviours. We can feel an assortment of things when we are most at stress, these include:
Being irritable, angry, or tearful. Feeling worried, scared, anxiety and hopelessness. We may struggle to make decisions and feel totally overwhelmed. Experience headaches, stomach problems, muscle pains, skin reactions and even feel dizzy and sick. Our bodies and minds do not do well at all when we are in this constant state.
To de stress we need to look after ourselves. Maybe take some exercise, talk to someone, start thinking positively, get more sleep and just try to relax with some 'me' time.
