You’re angry, stressed, work’s been a nightmare, you’re stuck in traffic, the phone won’t stop ringing, the kids are fighting… You notice your heart starts to pound, breathing quickens and your palms become sweaty - in other words, your ‘fight or flight’ response kicks in and your mind and body are ready to spring into action.
The fight or flight response is one of the most primitive reactions to perceived threat or danger. The adrenal glands release adrenaline (epinephrine) and other stress related hormones, to increase a heightened awareness in response to danger.While the effects of adrenal hormones are necessary when the body is faced with danger, prolongation of the resistance reaction, or continued stress, increases the risk of significant problems and can result in adrenal exhaustion.When the adrenals become exhausted the immune system often becomes depressed, making it much easier to catch the common cold or viral infections such as the flu. Irritation, nervousness, agitation and emotional mood-swings may also be a symptom of increased stress levels.There are a few options to reduce the stress response and help the body adapt to the stress response, both physically, mentally and emotionally. Exercise from sports, aerobics, weights, walking and swimming and/or relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and yoga are beneficial, coupled with some adrenal and immune system support.
