How to get rid of stress

Correction of nervous activity from the physical side is important. Namely, with vitamins. The fact is that with a lack of certain substances and minerals in the body, the functioning of the endocrine system is disrupted, as a result - hormonal imbalance, and as a result - a stressful, depressive, nervous state. Therefore, monitoring your physical condition and its correction is not only an important component of getting rid of stress, but also preventing it.

Symptoms of stress

The two main signs of stress and anxiety are uncontrollable worry and restlessness. But stress is not just a bad mood and emotional fallout. Stress is a condition that has a period of flow. It is long-term stress that can lead to serious consequences, such as depression and mental disorders.

This is important: there is such a thing as “smiling depression.” It is called the silent killer, because nothing in a person’s behavior, at first glance, betrays real depression: he is cheerful, active, and has a rich social life. Meanwhile, depression is a serious mental illness that is dangerous and requires real medical and psychological treatment.

Symptoms of stress may also include muscle tension, fatigue, irritability, impatience, insomnia or sleep disorders, and difficulty concentrating. A more complex form of stress, or a long-term stage - headaches, back pain, constipation and diarrhea, alcohol, drug use, smoking, increased blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, dizziness, neuralgia, depression. Needless to say, if you detect at least one of the listed signs, it’s time to act decisively. Also because stress aggravates the lack of valuable substances in the body and provokes its development. Vitamin deficiency and mineral deficiency, in turn, aggravate the stressful state.

Cure for stress

After all, medications are a cane that will help you survive stress and put your nervous system in order, but then you need to “learn to walk” on your own.

Thoughts, like emotions, directly affect the level of stress in life. The world knows thousands of cases confirming the power of influence of thought on human life. Both positive and negative.

Once we make an effort, then take specific actions to improve our mental state (exercise, meditate, change our thinking and take care of our body by taking the missing vitamins), our hormonal levels stabilize, stress levels decrease, feelings of joy and satisfaction take over, and I want to do even more for my life.

Emotional Intelligence Training

Emotional intelligence is a person’s ability to identify and adequately experience their emotions. Correctly perceive and adequately understand the emotions, intentions, motivations of actions and desires of other people, along with your own. But the most important thing is the ability to manage your emotions and the emotions of other people in order to overcome life situations and solve current problems.

The presence of emotional intelligence in a person is a decisive factor in the formation of personality, quality and standard of living. In the full sense of the word, it determines the vector of our life. And like a muscle in the body, it can be pumped up, improved and curbed.

Training and developing emotional intelligence is not just about controlling emotions. This is not suppressing emotions. This is a management process. Quite as concrete as managing a large enterprise for the sake of its prosperity and profit. And there are very specific methods for achieving success in this matter.

Meditation

The technique is by no means mystical and is quite accessible to the simplest and most ordinary person who does not have superpowers. It lies in being able to learn to be in the “here and now” state. If you wash dishes, don't think about anything other than that plate. This is roughly the general idea of ​​meditative practice. Deep relaxation, internal concentration, deep and even breathing and complete emotional and mental order. Meditation can significantly improve the quality of your life, give strength, inspiration, and peace. Many practices and meditation techniques can be found on the Internet, fortunately they are now widely available. Daily practices and very soon you will notice significant changes in your life.

Sport

In a sense, sport is the same as meditation. Only reinforced. An undoubted advantage of physical exercise is the increase in the production of endorphins (hormones of joy).

But these hormones are not released during any activity. In order for endorphins and dopamines to begin to be released, the load must be above average. It should be a little hard for you, only then the body will begin to “encourage” you. Moreover, exercises on coordination, game tactics, and dancing can have a greater impact on the brain and increase brain activity and fight stress. A few times a week can do wonders not only for your body, but also for your life. Give it a try.

Reading

Many will say that the pace of today's life has so replaced simply reading books that they have been completely replaced by the Internet and social networks. However, reading good books is extremely necessary for us. Learn to read. Reading can not only quickly and effectively work as an antidepressant, but also contribute to the development of your emotional intelligence, memory, and imagination. What will only have a positive effect on the functioning of the brain, and after a while, make the brain work differently, in an anti-stress mode. Love books, because in them you will definitely find answers to all questions.

Study and Hobby

No, this is not studying at school or college. This is self-education. It is the constant improvement of your skills and abilities, the ability to adopt productive experience from mentors, teachers and coaches, that is the key to living in anti-stress mode. The fact is that mastering new skills reinforces the corresponding psychological attitudes in your mind, which directly affect your self-esteem.

New knowledge and skills are reflected in our habits, attitudes and plans, character. In our sense of ourselves in society. They define our goals and aspirations. And if an ordinary average education is the key to survival, then self-education is the key to freedom. Always learn. Increase your erudition, learn to build productive relationships with others, then stress and negative emotions will not be your story.

Development of adverse reactions and overdose

The drug is usually well tolerated by people. In rare cases, nausea, heartburn, and allergic reactions may occur.

Reviews

"Perselak" reviews are mostly good. Some note the pleasant packaging of the drug, which evokes positive emotions. Many people take pills once a day, so the course of therapy is relatively inexpensive.

Thus, the effect of the drug is cumulative; it must be used for at least one month. After completing the course of therapy, the effect lasts for a long time.

The advantages of the product include the fact that the drug calms and improves sleep. In addition, it has a low cost and natural composition.

The disadvantages of the medicine include the unpleasant odor of the tablets. The drug is not strong, but effective.

Nerves and emotions

Nerves and emotions, emotions and nerves are a vicious circle, the cycle of life, the state and proper circulation of which determines the quality of our life and the level of stress in it.
Emotions are undoubtedly of a physical and spiritual nature, influence and shape character, and are transformed over time and throughout life. But the most important thing is that they can be controlled and corrected. Thanks to which the nervous system is strengthened and the level of depression, blues and stress is reduced. This is interesting: emotions are born as a combination of the physical properties of the body, the flexible brain, the environment in which a person is located, as well as his culture and upbringing. But humans also have an emotional brain - the most ancient type of brain cells that has been with us from time immemorial. This is the limbic system in the very center of the brain. It is believed that this part of the brain is responsible for communication with the higher self, for the spiritual component of the personality. So if you want the quality of emotions to be at high vibrations, spend time on your culture, the environment you are in and self-education.
