Stressful situations are a great burden on our bodies, and stress causes many civilisational diseases. Usually stress is triggered by a change, challenge or danger.

Stress can be combated, it is just important to know how.

The concept of stress

Stress is divided into short-term and long-term.  These are the physical and psychological reactions of the body. However, short-term stress can help us to improve our performance or achieve our goals. Our body can cope well with this stress. On the other hand, long-term stress has a bad impact on the human body. This kind of stress destroys our body far more than you can imagine.

Tips for stress management

We already know the concept of stress and its negative impact, now we will share with you tips on how to manage it.

1 -Healthy diet

Diet is the basis of disease prevention, our body needs enough vitamins to function. The best vitamin to fight stress is vitamin C. This is found in kiwi, rosehip, currants and or broccoli.

Magnesium is not to be missed either, it is found in whole grains, nuts or brown rice.

Many people ward off stress by overeating, especially with sweets. This will lift your mood, but only for a while, and then you will feel guilty about eating sweets and getting fat because of it.

The important thing is to eat slowly and savour every bite.

2 - Movement

Just set aside 30 minutes every day for some sporting activity and your body will be extremely grateful. You'll wonder where to find the time, but you no longer realize how many hours a day you spend on social media or surfing the internet. Instead of spending time online, try going for a run to clear your head and recharge your energy.

Being out in the fresh air in nature will recharge you incredibly, improve your immunity and make you feel much better. Try walking more or take a weekend trip somewhere out of town. Your body will then become much more resistant to stress.

3 - Sleep

Sleep is essential for the functioning of the body. Sleep is not an obligation, but a pleasure. Not many people get enough quality sleep these days, yet it is so important. Lack of sleep lowers immunity and our brain slows down. The recommendation is to sleep eight hours. What you may not have known is that if you don't sleep for one whole day, it's like drinking five beers on your body.

The older we get, the more important sleep becomes for our bodies. In addition, sleep deprivation is known to be one of the techniques in interrogating prisoners; it is a torture tool. Don't torture your body and give it as much sleep as it needs.

4 - Relaxation

Try meditation or yoga to learn to feel your breath and improve your concentration. Some people relax by reading a book, others by being outdoors. But if your stress levels are already high, a relaxation technique called autogenic training can help.

Autogenic training consists of two principles: relaxation and concentration. When you relax, you relax the muscles in your body, and the relaxed muscles induce mental calmness and put you at ease. With concentration, you will focus on concentration, you will perceive only your thoughts and nothing that is happening around you.

5 - Breathing

Proper breathing has a great impact on human health. Try a breathing exercise that focuses on breathing into the abdomen. In this breathing exercise, the abdomen and lower chest are lifted when you inhale. To begin, try counting in your mind, counting to five as you inhale, then hold your breath and count to five again as you exhale.  This exercise will help you focus on yourself and not on your surroundings, which can distract you.

It is recommended to practice breathing techniques for 5 to 10 minutes each day.

Conclusion

Stress is part of our lives, we encounter it whether we want to or not. It is up to each of us to find our own method of coping with stress.

Some people go for a run, others go for a bike ride, and for some it helps to be surrounded by friends.
