Good day gorgeous souls.
I would like to talk about stress and its affect-on us.
What is stress?
Stress is a big problem in modern society that can cause many health issues, from minor discomforts to serious illnesses,
It is linked to major causes of death like heart disease, cancer, and stroke.
What happens when we stressed, our body's "fight or flight" response is triggered, affecting our mind, hormones, and immune system,
This could lead to physical and mental problems.
Three levels of stress.
There are different types of stress, but the idea is that stress can impact us in various ways, including:
1 Physical (body)
2 Emotional (mind)
3 immune system (defenses)
The impact of stress:
Stress can affect our entire being, including our thoughts, feeling, systems It is not just "in our heads' - it is a whole-body experience.
In simple terms, stresses and major health issue that can affect us in many ways, and understanding its impact can help us manage it better.
The "flight or fight" mechanism is a natural response in our bodies that helps us react to stress, danger, or threats.
He res how it works:
When we perceive a threat (physical, emotions, or psychological),our brain sends a signal to our body to prepare for action.
This triggers the release of stress hormones like adrenaline ( also known as epinephrine) and cortisol.
What our body does;
Increasing heart rate and blood pressure
Rapid breathing
Tensing muscles
Suppressing non-essential functions (like digestion)
Why it happens:
Flight the threat (confront it)
Flee the threat (run away)
The issue:
In modern times, this mechanism can be triggered by non-life threatening stressors ( like work, finances, or relationships).
If our body's "flight or fight" response is activated too frequently or for too long can lead to physical and mental health challenges.
Specialized kinesiology explores all these areas of life in great depth and on many levels.

I wish everyone a great day full of peace and wellness.
Love and light to all.
