Re: How To Fight Stress
This is incredible science.
Also: it isn't wise to use alcohol - or even cigarettes and drugs - to deal with stress. These will worsen stress effects within the body. Plus, alcohol dehydrates the body and increases stress. The old "sip a glass of brandy" to deal with shock isn't a wise one.
Having effective sleep and using natural remedies to treat stress is a far better option.

Re: How To Fight Stress
To effectively combat stress, it is essential to incorporate various strategies into your daily routine. First, start by practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, to calm your mind and body. Regular exercise can release endorphins, which can boost your mood and reduce stress levels. Additionally, maintain a balanced diet and prioritize getting enough quality sleep to support your overall well-being. Managing your time efficiently and setting realistic goals can help you avoid overwhelming yourself. Finally, do not hesitate to seek social support from friends and family or consider talking to a therapist if stress becomes overwhelming. Combining these approaches can help you better manage and reduce stress in your life.

Re: How To Fight Stress
It is very important to follow these steps if you want to reduce stress. Of course, there is no way to eliminate stress altogether: like when your ex-boyfriend is asking for a £1000 loan while with his rabid dog. BUT - to be serious - stress can be reduced by good dietary habits/a good sleep pattern/mild exercise. And also by not using alcohol to deal with stress: drink will worsen it and you could risk becoming addicted to alcohol, which you do not want.ayassresearch wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2023 8:15 pmTo effectively combat stress, it is essential to incorporate various strategies into your daily routine.

Re: How To Fight Stress
Stress is the body's natural response to threats, activating hormones like cortisol and adrenaline for the fight-or-flight reaction. While short-term stress is adaptive, chronic stress can harm physical and mental health. A healthy lifestyle involves managing stress through techniques like exercise, mindfulness, and seeking support when needed.

Re: How To Fight Stress
I'd say this is accurate. I 100% agree with seeking support when needed. Stress can't be gotten completely rid of though: stress IS part of daily life for mostly everyone. As for mindfulness: that will help to a certain extent but it really depends on how it is done and all that.ayassresearch wrote: ↑Thu Sep 28, 2023 8:22 pmStress is the body's natural response to threats, activating hormones like cortisol and adrenaline for the fight-or-flight reaction.

Just realize you will never completely eradicate stress: but you can certainly learn to deal with it on a daily basis.

Re: How To Fight Stress
Agreed.
Friends and family can also help solve practical problems. If you're stressed because of an actual situation, then dealing with that practically is worthwhile. If you're stressed because you're just stressed and overloaded, then finding emotional ways to reduce your stress levels is worthwhile.
I'd certainly make sure you're sleeping well and you're trying meditation. Not anything foreign or fancy: just sitting down with your eyes closed and breathing deeply for five minutes. You don't need a fancy zen practice.
