When we get stressed our bodies are being subconsciously triggered to respond.
The body releases hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol so our systems are put on what we'd call 'high alert'... ready for 'fight, flight or freeze'.
These hormones generate many changes around the body such as increased heart rate, blood pressure and breathing rate.
The leg muscles can feel like jelly as they get primed for a fast getaway.
Our brains 'feel stressed' as they get prepared for rapid action and acute awareness.
These responses are superb at saving us in the best way possible when under genuine threat e.g., escaping a predator in the jungle but are most unpleasant and confusing when we experience them in everyday life e.g., a comment from the boss.
The body continues to respond like this for as long as you keep experiencing the stressors.
The way your mind automatically responds to such physical symptoms is most important. It may interpret them in many different ways; from feeling excitement... a challenge to find a diplomatic or even witty response... to panic and dread at feeling trapped in a tortuous and impossible situation.
After long periods exposed to stress, and the effects of our own stress hormones, the body may become exhausted wherein a state of continuing anxiety can be reached.
I can train you in techniques which can prevent the full 'stress response' from automatically occurring. Hence enabling you to control your hormone response, ultimately to accommodate, and even enjoy, the challenges that life inevitably generates.
