Stressful situations trigger a physical reaction called the stress response (Harvard Medical School, 2015). The stress response causes muscles to tighten and the adrenal glands to release adrenaline and cortisol, which engages the flight or fight response (Harvard Medical School, 2015). Short term stress is good for the body, but long-term stress can cause physical damage to the body (Harvard Medical School, 2015). It can increase blood sugar and make diabetes worse, increase high blood pressure and cause insomnia, and increase feelings of anxiety, wariness, depression, or frustration (Harvard Medical School, 2015). In order to best manage stress, you must know what triggers it, in laymen terms what pushes your buttons. Once you have that figured out you can try the following. Relaxation techniques like meditation, guided imagery, yoga, and deep breathing exercises which can help lower your blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate, oxygen consumption, and stress hormones (Harvard Medical School, 2015).
