Stress is a natural response to demanding or threatening situations, but chronic or excessive stress can harm our well-being. Physically, stress triggers the release of hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, leading to increased heart rate, high blood pressure, tense muscles, and heightened alertness. Long-term stress can raise the risk of heart disease, weaken the immune system, and cause digestive, musculoskeletal, and respiratory problems.
Emotionally, stress can contribute to anxiety disorders and depression, causing mood swings, irritability, and difficulty coping with daily challenges. Sleep disturbances and persistent fatigue are common, affecting concentration and overall performance. Cognitively, stress impairs memory, attention, and decision-making abilities, increasing the risk of mental health disorders like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
The most common every day contributors to your stress, are blue light toxicity, chronic inflammation from diet and environmental factors, and poor breathing techniques. These three factors alone typically account for a majority of the stress going on within your body and can lead to Sympathetic Dominance.
