Ways to relief stress
It triggers your fight-or-flight response in order to fight the
stress or run away from it. Typically, after the response occurs, your
body should relax. Too much constant stress can have negative effects
on your long-term health.
The human body is designed to experience stress and react to it. Stress
can be positive, keeping us alert, motivated, and ready to avoid danger.
Stress becomes negative when a person faces continuous challenges
without relief or relaxation between stressors. As a result, the person
becomes overworked, and stress-related tension builds. The body's
autonomic nervous system has a built-in stress response that causes
physiological changes to allow the body to combat stressful situations.
This stress response, also known as the "fight or flight response", is
activated in case of an emergency. However, this response can become
chronically activated during prolonged periods of stress.
