Stress       

No matter what the nature of your circumstances - positive or negative - any event that causes the body to have specific physiological reactions is stressful. The autonomic (involuntary) nervous system creates the same hormonal changes that affect organs and nerve tissue throughout the body, regardless of whether your house is burning down or you’ve just won the lottery.

During these physiological changes the adrenal glands release adrenaline.  This is the hormone that is responsible for the “fight or flight” response of the sympathetic nervous system. Rapid heart beat, increased blood pressure, rapid respiration, dilated pupils, slowing of the digestive processes, etc. are some of the symptoms you can experience.  When the body is stimulated in this way for prolonged periods it becomes stressed and finally fatigued and  increases the likelihood of the onset of disease.

Whether at the work place or at home stress-producing events can upset our social life and the daily rhythm of our bodies. Shift-work, working long hours, noise, poor lighting, and deadlines can cause us to have sleep problems, headaches, high blood pressure and  irritability.  Add to that a negative relationship, financial difficulties, illness or death in the family and our bodies succumb to the stress put upon it.

We need to eliminate stressors through changes in attitude and lifestyle.  Focus on tranquility, practice relaxation breathing, exercise, slow down, set priorities & write or talk about your problems.
