Facts about Stress

Understanding exactly how stress affects your body and the mechanism of its triggering will help you prevent the problem even before it is no longer possible to press the brake. The best treatment is prevention.

Fact #1. Your body doesn't care if you get a lot of stress or just nervous. The negative consequences will be the same in both cases, since the mechanism of operation is the same. The standard reaction to even a small stress is the launch of more than 1,400 different biomechanical processes in our body. If we let these reactions take their course, our body wears out faster, our mental abilities suffer, our energy source runs out and we lose our efficiency and clarity of thinking.

Fact #2. Stress can make smart people do stupid things. Stress triggers a reaction that brain researchers call "Cortical Inhibition." The phenomenon of cortical inhibition explains why smart people sometimes do stupid things.

Stress slows down the work of some parts of the brain and you just don't think at this moment. When we are in a consistent state, our brain, nervous and cardiac systems work in harmony.

Fact #3. People try to drown out the feeling of stress. We can physiologically experience stress, but psychologically we do not notice it simply because we are used to this state.

Some people are so used to daily anxiety, anxiety, disorders, etc., that this condition has become natural for them. Stress can accumulate in our body in small portions for months and remain unnoticed until we make a serious mistake at work, break down emotionally or find out about health problems in our doctor's office.

Fact #4. We can control our stress response. We don't have to be a victim of our emotions, thoughts, and relationships. We can control our response to stress and can become more sensitive to stressful situations and how they affect us before we feel the physiological and emotional consequences.

There are simple and scientifically based ways to deal with stress that allow people to control their reaction to it.

Fact #5. The best strategy is to catch stress at the very beginning and stop it. The best way to manage stress is to catch yourself at the very beginning. Most people prefer to wait until the end of the working day in order to have a good rest and get rid of this unpleasant feeling. Being under stress all day long, they believe that evening yoga classes, going to the gym after work or relaxing over a beer with friends will save them and completely cleanse them.

But, unfortunately, their expectations do not correspond to reality, because if we do not catch the moment at the very beginning and allow ourselves to remain in a stressful state, our body immediately begins to react to it, triggering all 1,400 reactions. And since the process is running, we get emotional and physiological problems at the output.
