What is Chronic Stress?

Stress is an inevitable part of life. We are born with the response to stress to protect ourselves from danger and stay alive. It is a natural and normal reaction for our body experiencing through any positive and negative changes. A built-in response to protect ourselves from danger, stimulating different hormones in our system associated with the fight or flight response. 

It is unlikely to have a life completely free of stress, but we are not designed to deal with chronic and constant stressors from our modern society. Naturally, we are wired to handle short episodes of stress, and then return to a normal state, until the next surge; but nowadays, with the modern lifestyle we are living in it is important to be familiar with the concept of Chronic Stress and Chronic Stressors, and understand the mechanism. 

As a result, Chronic Stress and Stressors symptoms could be:

• Weight issues,
• Digestive problems,
• Gut issues,
• Chronic Inflammation,
• Brain fog,
• Skin issues,
• High blood pressure,
• Weak immune system,
• Chronic health and wellness concerns,
• Thyroid and hormonal problems,
• Adrenal issues,
• Immunodeficiency,
• Autoimmune disease,
• Heart issue,
• Insulin resistance,
• Anxiety,
• Emotional burden,
• And many many more since symptoms may be far removed from the actual cause. 

By definition, overall symptoms are not the problem, they are the results of the problem; and when one function in the body is not working correctly, the whole system cannot properly function in the long run. 

As a consequence, our overall body is impacted by chronic stress and chronic stressors and our mindset, our emotions, our behaviors, our actions, and our reactions are affected even more as a reflection of how we experience life!
