Stress affects all parts of you body, mind, and spirit

Lets face it since September 11th, our lives have changed forever. We''ve seen war in Iraq and Afghanistan, with no end in sight. We''ve seen Wall Street collapse, and people''s life savings go down the drain. The economy hit the tank and people are in fear of losing their jobs, their homes, and everything precious to them. So it''s no wonder people are stressed, and have anxiety.Stress Relief solutions from HeartMath

Anxiety caused due to stress can lead to multifarious disorders. Some of these disorders are physiological and some of them are psychological. Among physiological disorders many problems like heaviness of breath, palpitation of heart, increased levels of blood pressure, and also some other infections which the body gets susceptible to because of low levels of immunity are observable.

Anxiety can cause various kinds of psychological problems too! These include panic, mental fatigue and some serious neurological disorders.

These conditions are serious and in general they can be even fatal at a certain level.

Stress, a gateway to Depression

One recent theory concerning depression, out of Britain, post ts that the root cause of depression is chronic anxiety frequently brought on by undue stress.
The anxiety either disrupts or prevents proper sleep and this in turn causes many of the depressive symptoms: low mood, lack of concentration and energy, etc. Part of recovery is to minimize sources of stress and to do proper self-care which involves asserting proper boundaries. Restoring proper restful sleep is critical for recovery

The Silent Killer

To discuss in detail I would elucidate some of the physical problems that often plague people who are under stress and are easy prey to anxiety problems.

Cardiological problems, lung disease and even cancerous growth can be some stress assisted problem that can become fatal.

The true reason behind such unusual problems is excessive smoking and drinking that stressful people do as a measure to cancel out the anxiety. Instead of relaxing their mind smoking excites them even more.

The nicotine in cigarettes is extremely dangerous as they make the brain addicted to such a drug and a falsifying effect of stress busting relieves such stress and anxiety very superficially. Even a lot of drinking too is triggered by such stress related problems. Social stress and often personal problems trigger such habits, which forces both the husband and the wife to smoke and drink excessively.

Stress errods Relationships

This results only in the decadence of the union as both the partners indulge more into the trap of irrational excitement and end up fighting more out of emotional fatigue and irritation.

Other than that, smoking deteriorates the functionality of the lungs and the entire respiratory system as it chokes it with poisonous smoke and that in turn increases blood pressure.

Once the patient has high blood pressure he will surely have cardiological problems. Hyper tension and high blood pressure exerts tremendous amount of pressure over the auricular and ventricular muscles and also on the valves. This lead to myocardial infarction or blood pressure or stroke that is increased blood flow in the brain.

Anxiety related problems are also heavy on your neurons and also on your psychic sphere. They can be increasingly heavy and clogs the nerve ending s making them resilient towards feelings of stimuli. This also happens because of the over load of sensory stimuli and thereby stress anxiety and other related problems are complex problems which seek more attention and care than just simple medication.

Happiness and other positive emotions, why are they important for your health?

There is a study that came out this year that said Happiness Breeds Healthy Hearts, Cuts Cardiac Risk. By focusing on things that make us feel better and happier, we are doing something good for our bodies. In a nut shell, feel better, live better. So why not take a moment and think about some of the things that make you happy; a baby giggling, a new bride dancing with her husband for the first time. Acing a test or bowling a strike. There are so many simple things in life that make us smile and cause us to feel happy. Focusing on your heart and positive feelings can have a beneficial effect on your mind and body. HeartMath's Quick Coherence® technique helps you get back to these positive feelings anytime, any where. Using emWave® products with this technique shows you when your heart is responding to these positive emotions.
