The coach of mindfulness and yoga Ángela Losada explains that stress can be a useful tool for finding solutions to different situations, but when it becomes chronic it can have repercussions on people’s physical health. So in this episode of Efficientlyshe shares three tips for managing stress.
Stress is a feeling of physical and emotional tension that occurs in the face of change, an unknown situation, frustration, an adverse moment or a moment of nerves. This natural response of the body is normal in everyday life, but when a person is stressed for long periods of time, it can have negative results on their health.
This happens, according to the study Maps of subjective feelings, as each emotion generates different types of physical sensations and if an emotion is constant, so is its corresponding physical sensation. If a person is in a constant state of stress, their tension will be high for a longer period of time and this can lead to heart disease, stroke and even repercussions on organs such as the liver or the eyes.
Physical symptoms of stress can range from headaches, rapid breathing, increased heart rate, tremors, insomnia, and even fatigue. In addition there is also an emotional symptomatology, such as irrational anger, restlessness and difficulty concentrating. To reduce these symptoms, it is possible to implement breathing exercises, yoga and meditation.
