🧠 Understanding Stress
⚡ Acute vs Chronic Stress
Acute stress is short-term and can be beneficial, helping you perform under pressure. Chronic stress persists over time and can lead to serious health problems including cardiovascular disease, weakened immunity, and mental health issues.
🔄 The Stress Response
When you perceive a threat, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. This "fight-or-flight" response is useful in emergencies but harmful when constantly activated by daily stressors.
🧘 How Meditation Helps
Regular meditation practice activates the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress hormones and promoting relaxation. It also builds resilience, helping you respond to stressors more skillfully.
