What exactly is stress?

Stress is the way the Body responds to any kind of threat or demanding circumstance, through tension or emotional strain. Stress usually affects the heart rhythm (in which heart beats become faster), Blood Pressure (which rises), and breath (where the inhalation & exhalation of air from the lungs quickens). Despite the many stressful demands and frustrations of modern life, stress can also prove very beneficial to us, as our senses become sharper and our focus further enhanced - making it particularly useful in a state of emergency.

How does stress affect the body?

When stress becomes a constant fixture in our lives, there is the risk that it can lead to further complications. High levels of stress can suppress the Immune System, raise blood pressure, and increase the risk of a stroke or heart attack. 

How can I stop stressing?

Some simple techniques to reduce stress could include lighting candles, laughing, reducing your overall intake of caffeine, and exercise, which is known to improve stress levels. Supplements may also encourage a reduction in both stress and Anxiety levels.
