    Health Information: Is Your Life Plagued With Stress?


    When reading this article please keep in mind that supplements are not drugs. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. These articles are truly just for your information.



    Many people today suffer from stress, anxiety, nervousness and tension from today's modern lifestyle. The workplace, the home, the 24 hour news cycle and its constant barrage of stressful world events all contribute to feeling overwhelmed and weighed down.

    What is stress?

    We feel that stress is the umbrella word that best defines what we feel when we are anxious, nervous or tense. The actual definition of stress as a noun is; pressure or tension exerted on a material object, or a state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or very demanding circumstances. It also can be used as a verb; to give particular emphasis or importance to (a point, statement, or idea) made in speech or writing or subject to pressure or tension. No matter how we use the word "stress" the application of pressure and tension is right there in the forefront.

    In psychology, stress is a feeling of strain and pressure. Stress is a type of psychological pain. Small amounts of stress may be desired, beneficial, and even healthy. Positive stress helps improve athletic performance. It also plays a factor in motivation, adaptation, and reaction to the environment. On the other hand too much stress can have a negative affect on people of all ages, genders and circumstances and can lead to both physical and psychological health issues.

    Stressors can be external (from the environment, psychological, or social situations) or internal (illness, or injury). Stress the feeling of tension or pressure from an outside source can initiate the "fight or flight" response. That's a complex reaction of neurologic and endocrinologic systems, Short term it tends to enhance performance but long term dealings can have a negative effect on one's health.

    The point is that we all live with some stress and pressure. Sometimes it can lead to immediate reactions to adverse events that help our situation. More often than not the constant pressure that causes us to be "stressed out" may cause temporary bouts of depression and may even debilitate us enough that we become "stress paralized" (a state where one is unable to react to the situation at hand).

    How to deal with stress. There are several different ways that one can deal with stress. Here is a list of just a few.

  • Exercise:
  • Exercise is one of the most important things you can do to combat stress.
    It might seem contradictory, but putting physical stress on your body through exercise can relieve mental stress. The benefits are strongest when you exercise regularly. People who exercise regularly are less likely to experience anxiety than those who don't exercise.
  • There are a few reasons behind this:
  • Stress hormones: Exercise lowers your body's stress hormones — such as cortisol — in the long run. It also helps release endorphins, which are chemicals that improve your mood and act as natural painkillers.
  • Sleep: Exercise can also improve your sleep quality, which can be negatively affected by stress and anxiety.
  • Confidence: When you exercise regularly, you may feel more competent and confident in your body, which in turn promotes mental wellbeing.
  • Reduce Caffeine Intake:
  • Caffeine is a stimulant found in coffee, tea, chocolate and energy drinks. High doses can increase anxiety. People have different tolerences of caffeine. Since caffeine is a metabolism booster it might add to a stressful situation. If you feel overly anxious at home or at work it might be a good idea to keep the caffeine intake to a minimum.
  • Laugh!!!
  • Laughter truly is the best medicine.
  • It's hard to feel anxious when you're laughing. It's good for your health, and there are a few ways it may help relieve stress:
  • Relieving your stress response.
  • Relieving tension by relaxing your muscles.
  • In the long term, laughter can also help improve your immune system and mood.
  • Try watching a funny TV show or hanging out with friends who make you laugh.
  • Yoga:
  • YES those odd poses that seem to contort bodies in ways that they just shouldn't bend are good for you physically and emotionally!
  • Yoga has become a popular method of stress relief and exercise among all age groups.
  • While yoga styles differ, most share a common goal — to join your body and mind.
  • Yoga primarily does this by increasing body and breath awareness.
  • Some studies have examined yoga's effect on mental health.
  • Overall, research has found that yoga can enhance mood and may even be as effective as antidepressant drugs at treating depression and anxiety.
  • In general, the benefit of yoga for stress and anxiety seems to be related to its effect on your nervous system and stress response.
  • It may help lower cortisol levels, blood pressure and heart rate and increase gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that is lowered in mood disorders.
  • Meditate while listening to soothing music.
  • Meditation has been around just about as long as civilization. We know that meditation allows us to become calm and collected.
  • Adding slow soothing music to meditation can multiply the effects of the meditation itself.
  • The music should be instrumantal nad should be calming in YOUR opinion. We all have different tastes in music and therefore what you choose as calming should work.
