Constantly stressed out?

Stress has become an inescapable part of our lives, which we experience everywhere, but only if we allow it. At work, at home, in the store, on the road… it’s hard to be focused all the time, especially if nothing goes as planned. Although we are not aware of this, even a small meaningless thing can cause stress, and affect us and our health.

Many questions arise: Why does stress happen to us? How do we notice it? Is stress normal? How do we manage it?

What exactly is stress?

Stress is a situation that triggers a certain biological response. When we perceive a threat or a major challenge, our body is flooded with hormones, thus protecting us from stressors. When we face a challenge, part of our response is physical. The body activates the resources with which it protects us and prepares for an escape as quickly as possible.

Are we really used to work under constant pressure? Should we avoid it?

Short-term stress may even has a positive effect on us. It encourages creative thinking, dynamism and motivation to work. On the other hand, prolonged or repetitive stress can be destructive or harmful to our body. Therefore, too much constant stress can have quite a negative impact on our long-term health.

Healthy stress should only be temporary. When the challenge or the stressful event is behind us, the heart rate and breathing should slow down and the muscles should relax. In a short time, our body must return to its natural state, without any long-lasting negative effects. Severe, frequent or prolonged stress can be mentally and physically harmful. And this happens quite often.

How do we recognise this?

Stress slows down our normal functions – the immune and digestive system. All energy or reserves are focused on rapid breathing, blood flow, attention and the use of muscles.

To the question “How often are you under stress?”, 80 percent of Slovenians answered that they had at least one symptom of stress in the last month. Twenty percent reported being under extreme stress. Life is as it is, stress cannot be completely eliminated. However, we can learn to avoid it when possible and naturally manage it.

The most common negative effects of stress are:

Severe fatigue
Bad concentration
Insomnia
Accumulation of excess body weight
Tension and mood swings
Weakened immune system

If you have any of these signs, it’s time for a change. Wondering how to naturally halve the unwanted stress?
