Stress: What Is It
Sometimes stress can be beneficial, short term. But, ongoing stress can lead to physical and mental health problems. Some common causes are: moving, a breakup, relationship/family issues, a demanding job, chronic health issues, mental health conditions, and loss and grief. Stress is a “silent killer” becasue the symptoms of it are not obvious right away. Chronic stress hormons are released over time when they’re only meant to be released in short bursts. This leads to imbalance and inflammation in the body which can trigger headaches, digestive issues, muscle tension,  and sleep issues. The more it goes on, serious health conditions arise, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, depression, and anxiety. It could also result in decreased immunity.
