either quick or constant, can induce risky bodymind disorders. They may also affect our immune, cardiovascular and nervous systems lead individuals to habitual addictions, which are interlinked with stress. Immediate disorders such as dizzy spells, anxiety attacks, tension, sleeplessness, nervousness and muscle cramps can all result in chronic health problems.

 Walter

Cannon and Hans Selye used animal studies to establish the earliest scientific basis for the study of stress. Subsequent studies of stress in humans by Richard Rahe and others established the view that stress is caused by distinct, measureable life stressors Thus, stress was traditionally conceptualized to be a result of external insults beyond the control of those experiencing the stress.

 It

is important to recognize whether you are under stress or out of it. Many times, even if we are under the influence of a stressful condition and our body reacts to it internally as well as externally, we fail to realize that we are reacting under stress. The body constantly tries to tell us through symptoms such as rapid palpitation, dizzy spells, tight muscles or various body aches that something is wrong.

are many healthy ways to manage and cope with stress, but they all require change. You can either change the situation or change your reaction. When deciding which option to choose, its helpful to think of the four As: avoid, alter, adapt, or accept. No single method works for everyone or in every situation, so experiment with different techniques and strategies. Focus on what makes you feel calm and in control.
