AN ESSAY...

Controlling stress...


Society becomes ever more and more demanding to us. Our body's response to that demand is known as stress, which can be positive, if we learn to manage it properly. The problem is when we do not control stress properly it becomes a mortal enemy. In fact, stress has been considered as the worst disease of modern times.

As a result of bad management of stress, our body can suffer physical changes. These physical changes are, for example, increase in heart rate and blood pressure; fall of the immune system; muscle tension; acne, and many more. Our mind is also a victim of these changes due to stress, we can suffer sudden changes in mood; poor concentration; anxiety; sadness; irritability; loss or increased of the appetite, and depression.

So, we need to learn how to manage stress properly and this will happen especially, keeping a positive attitude toward life, but also by exercising; practicing relaxation and meditation techniques; making a balance between work and fun; having healthy hobbies and, most importantly, being aware of our reality as human beings, not to look beyond our reached goals.

Only then we will face one of the worst sicknesses of the modern era that becomes a silent enemy that paralyzes us and prevents us from being happy, even when we are struggling to achieve happiness.
