Do not 'PRESS' the 'STRESS' button

In today's fast track lifestyle, we are constantly being bombarded with stress & high level of anxiety. I think that this is quite dangerous and has adverse effects if not controlled in time. When we talk about stress, it can be anything, physical, mental or environmental. These stresses place huge strain on our physical and mental health.
Most of us know that excessive stress can affect our ability to think properly which in turn affects our capability of handling complex jobs. It is said that whenever a stressful situation arises, there will be a knock on the effect. I've heard that stress will first limit the blood supply to the stomach which hampers the digestive system and slowly the immune system will get affected. If we are overwhelmed with stress for an extended period we may experience fatigue and exhaustion.
Although it is not possible to avoid these day to day stress factors in our life, we can help reduce the effect of stress. These days there are so many stress management techniques available, i personally feel music as one of the best options to switch to in order to reduce the impact of stress on our health.
Maintaining food habits, avoiding junk food, doing yoga, walking, exercising, these may help you stay fit but all these are very boring for me, instead of doing all these i prefer relaxing my soul by listening to good music. I love to laugh, sleep as much as possible. When i say laughter, i do not mean the laughter therapy, i mean the fun which we all have with our family and friends, laugh the stress out buddy.
Proper sleep is essential to deal with the day to day stress, especially for people who work in unusual shifts. If you do not take enough time to sleep, your body will not have enough energy to beat out the stress. Many ambitious people of today's generation are running around with no second thought to achieve their goals, i don't deny the fact that one should be ambitious and should work hard to achieve one's goal, all that I want to say is you should also take care of your health. If you are not healthy, where will you get the energy from to run for your ambition. Proper rest is always important, Sleep tight to dream and to wake up with all the energy to make your dreams come true. May your dreams come true!!!
