STRESS...

Stress... Is one of the common word we came across in our day-to-day life..

So it is not a new term... 

But it is like a slow poison that may ruin your happiness... 

So let's read this content to know the facts about the stress.... 

OK, what is stress? 

    Stress is the feeling of being under too much mental or emotional pressure.

Pressure turns into stress when you feel unable to cope. People have different ways of reacting to stress, so a situation that feels stressful to one person may be motivating to someone else.

Many of life’s demands can cause stress, particularly work, relationships and money problems. And, when you feel stressed, it can get in the way of sorting out these demands, or can even affect everything you do.

Stress can affect how you feel, think, behave and how your body works. In fact, common signs of stress include sleeping problems, sweating, loss of appetite and difficulty in concentration. 

You may also experience headaches, muscle tension or pain, or dizziness.

Stress causes a surge of hormones in your body. These stress hormones are released to enable you to deal with pressures or threats – the so-called "fight or flight" response.

Once the pressure or threat has passed, your stress hormone levels will usually return to normal. However, if you're constantly under stress, these hormones will remain in your body, leading to the symptoms of stress.

MANAGING STRESS IN DAILY LIFE:

Stress is not an illness itself, but it can cause serious illness if it isn't addressed. It's important to recognise the symptoms of stress early. Recognising the signs and symptoms of stress will help you figure out ways of coping and save you from adopting unhealthy coping methods, such as drinking or smoking.

There is little you can do to prevent stress, but there are many things you can do to manage stress more effectively, such as learning how to relax, taking regular exercise and adopting good time-management techniques.

Studies have found that mindfulness courses, where participants are taught simple meditations across a series of weeks, can also help to reduce stress and improve mood.

RECOGNIZING YOUR STRESS TRIGGERS:

If you're not sure what's causing your stress, keep a diary and make a note of stressful episodes for two-to-four weeks. Then review it to spot the triggers.

Things you might want to write down include:

the date, time and place of a 

stressful episode

what you were doing

who you were with

how you felt emotionally

what you were thinking

what you started doing

how you felt physically

a stress rating (0-10 where 10 is the most stressed you could ever feel)..

Doctors also recommend to maintain a stress dairy....

Stress will ruin your life... So be cautious to avoid stress and also do some meditation and exercises to avoid stress in your life... Best relief is listening to music... Do anything to make your life beautiful and successful without hurting others and without doing harm to others.... 

Life is a beautiful story and the author is none other than you... So be the person to write the positive things and enjoy your each and every moment of your life.. ❤️
