How to Defeat Stress and Anxiety - And Live to Tell About It
Having overcome Stress and Anxiety myself I know how debilitating this condition can be for someone suffering from it.
If left unattended, in time it can cause illness to develop and worse yet those illnesses will become more severe as time wears on.
In this article I will attempt to help you to understand the negative influence that stress and anxiety have on your health.
Stress itself is not the culprit.
In fact, some stress is necessary for your body to be in top physical form.
When you stress your bones with exercise they become thicker and stronger.
When you stress your muscles with weight training, they get bigger and more able to handle the load.
You see a certain amount of stress is normally good for a healthy person that is not suffering from any major medical conditions.
When you are over-stressed your body prepares for battle.
Your heart will beat faster, your blood pressure with increase.
Hormones are released that prepare your body for a physical onslaught akin to when we were being chased by wild animals in the jungle.
Blood is shunted away from your internal organs, your brain and your eyes, to your extremities so you can fight.
This will cause numbness and tingling in your arms and legs, you can feel dizzy and your eyesight can get blurred.
This is the normal fight or flight response that is left over from when we were living in the wild and needed to be prepared for life and death situations every day.
Of course now a days we do not have to be prepared for that but the stress we are under triggers that same response.
The easiest cure for stress and anxiety is to just run or fight every time you feel it.
If that is not how you wish to deal with stress then know that there is a way to manage that reaction and have it work for you instead of against you.
Each person has an optimum level of stress that is healthy for them and only you can determine that level by testing it.
I suspect if you are suffering from stress and anxiety you have been living your life over that limit and are ready to do something about it.
Because I learned how to keep stress from negatively affecting me I want to assure you that with training you can increase you resilience to stressful situations.
It is much simpler and a lot more healthy for you than letting your symptoms continue to harm you.
If you suffer from Stress and Anxiety here are few things you can use to manage it: Practice Meditation - Meditation engages your parasympathetic nervous systems which commands you to relax.
Breathe Deeply - When you are stressed your breathing becomes shallow.
When you are stressed your body need LOTS of oxygen to feed your muscles.
If you do not have enough oxygen your organs will send out a signal which causes panic.
Disassociate - Mentally remove yourself from the stressful situation and place yourself somewhere where you feel totally relaxed.
Your subconscious mind cannot differentiate between something real and something imagined.
This can work against you, creating stressful situations that are not real, or you can use it to create a situation that is peaceful and loving.
Your mind is very powerful and when you train it to work for you, instead of against you, there is nothing you cannot accomplish.
The first step is to overcome this stress and anxiety that is affecting you.
