Let’s take a closer look at stress
It’s a wide ranging set of events in the body and as everyone is individual and unique, so is the stress that takes place in our bodies. It basically consists of a series of internal alterations that occur when we experience a perceived threat to our well being. AND a link does exist between emotions and physiology. There is no body without mind. The sequence then…
1. The stressor that you interpret as threatening. Physical or emotional
2. The brain reacts
3. The response, the various physiological adjustments made to the perceived threat.
The reaction is a matter of personal disposition and it predominantly affects the hormonal, immune and digestive systems.
In our wellness workshops we breakdown the biology of stress and discuss management techniques and individual coping mechanisms. It’s friendly, relaxed and interactive, fabulous for staff development days and for making your business healthy.
