What are some of the things that can cause stress?  Stress On the Job:                      Stress in your Personal Life: Deadlines                                      Marital problems Presentations                              Teenagers Personality conflicts                  Finances Overwork                                     Illness (personal or family) Job security                                 Personal property upkeep Learning a new skill                  Traffic Stress is ANY Activity..................................     Even good stress....is still stress and can wear on the body.  These are just a few of the things that can cause stress in our lives and I’m sure all of you can think of many other things that are causing stress in you life right now.  And everyone reacts to stressors differently.  One person's stress may be another person’s pleasure.  So what does stress do to the body?  Stress causes a natural, hard coded response within us called ‘Fight-or-Flight’ .  I’m sure most of you have heard the term before.  It’s usually used on nature shows when referring to the predator / prey relationship.  It’s the animal instinct within us that allows us to cope with unexpected situations or situations that require more than our normal functioning capacity. Call us today to learn how we can support your health with Acupuncture, Bodywork, and Chinese Herbs  512 . 909 . 1925 So here’s what happens when we get stressed :  In response to the stressor the body is flooded with hormones (draining our system of reserves) which cause: -       Heart rate and blood pressure rise -       Breathing becomes more rapid, which allows the lungs to take in more oxygen. -       Blood flow to the muscles, lungs, and brain may increase by 300–400%. -       The spleen releases more blood cells into the circulation, which increases the blood's ability to transport oxygen. -       The immune system redirects white blood cells to the skin, bone marrow, and lymph nodes in case of injury At the same time… -       Nonessential body systems shut down , such as urination and sexual drive -       The skin becomes cool and sweaty as blood is drawn away from it toward the heart and muscles -        The mouth becomes dry, and the digestive system slows down, causing lowered absorption of minerals and slowing rejeneration of our bodies. But what happens in the Brain ?? -       Causes neurotransmitters called catecholamines to be released, which in turn: -       Activate the amygdala, a structure in the limbic system that triggers an emotional response of fear. -       Signal the hippocampus, another part of the limbic system, to store the emotional experience in longterm memory.   -       Suppress short-term memory, concentration, and rational thinking. (This suppression allows a human to react quickly to a stressful situation, but it also lowers ability to deal with complex social or intellectual tasks that may be part of the situation.)   Fitness Formulas   Formulas designed to build your endurance and inhance immunity  Read more...
