We all face stressful situations throughout our lives, ranging from minor to more serious worries. No matter what the cause, stress floods your body with hormones and chemicals due to the fight or flight response. Your heart pounds, breathing speeds up, and muscles tense – It’s a normal reaction to a perceived threatening situation.
We can develop healthier ways of responding to these stressors by utilizing relaxation techniques such as:
- Breathing techniques
- Progressive muscle
- Guided imagery
