Stress Management Techniques & How to Overcome It - Ananthapuri Hospitals
Stress is often caused by being ‘here’, but wishing to be ‘there’.
When your body senses a threat, you may experience an increase in heartbeat, shortness in breath, increase in blood pressure or tightening of muscles. This reaction is known as a stress response.
We all experience stress, but stress isn’t always rough. A small sense of stress helps you perform under pressure. However, experiencing serious stress over a longer period of time can lead to depression, insomnia, eating disorders, panic attacks, diabetes, heart problems and so on. So it is very important that we know how to effectively manage our stress.
Before learning to manage stress, it is very important to understand stress as well!
Knowing your stress triggers is the primary requirement for the reduction of stress in life. A trigger can be anything that activates higher levels of stress or tension in you. It can be environmental, emotional, social, or physical.
So recognise those triggers and do something to kill it before stress kills you!
