In
fact in the 21st century, stress has become synonymous with life and is
associated with almost every aspect of our lives, personal and professional
alike.
Not
all stress is bad, though. Stress does however become a danger when it
goes unrecognized, is poorly controlled or becomes pent up over long periods of
time.
For most women, stress ranks at the top of the list of daily problems.
Whenever
you perceive that you are physically or psychologically threatened, an inbuilt
alarm-system in your brain triggers the adrenal glands to release complex
hormonal cascade of over 30 stress hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol.
Those
stress hormones give you the extra strength and speed you need to deal with the
threatening situation. This reaction is known as the
"fight-or-flight" reaction, or the stress response. Stress isn't
always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate
you to do your best.
The
problems start when you're constantly running in emergency mode, and you are
unable to cope well with the stress in your life, your mind, body, overall health and performance may pay the price.
If
you frequently find yourself feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, it's time to
take action to bring your life back into balance.
