Stress-busting: Leading a Healthier Life Through Knowledge

Stress-busting: Leading a Healthier Life Through Knowledge

Over millennia the nervous system has evolved to respond to threats, challenges, and dangers in the environment to ensure survival. We are programmed to react to situations in a way to avoid harm to our existence. This is great, however, these automatic reactions can over time do damage to our body. Repeated and continued response to stress causes wear and tear injuries. With time there will be a failure of the body to function efficiently. Eventually, full-blown disease will occur.

I believe it is important to understand a process before you can attempt to do anything to change it. Knowing the basics of the Autonomic Nervous System and how it functions will help you gain control. In this course you will learn:

• What is the Fight or Flight response

• What is the Stress Response

• The parts of the central nervous system

• The divisions of the autonomic nervous system

• How the autonomic nervous system impacts the body

• How thoughts and feelings impact the autonomic nervous system

• Why repeated stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to disease

• How you can control the sympathetic nervous systems output

Having this understanding you can take control of your life and your health. Knowing how and why changes occur in your body makes it easier for you to apply solutions. It is my hope in this course you will better understand:

• A basic understanding of your nervous system so you can work with your body.

• The functions of the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nervous system so you know which one you want to be more active in your body.

• How your body responds automatically to challenges.

• The difference between “good” and “bad” stress so you can use stress to your advantage

• How to differentiate between your perceptions of an event versus actual circumstances so you can better control your reaction.

• How you can adjust your thoughts and feelings so you can alter your automatic response

• How you can impact your bodies reaction to stressful situations to reduce the symptoms of stress

• The early symptoms of stress so you can make changes to avoid full-blown disease.

• How stress can lead to disease so that you can take control to live a healthier life.

• How stress is impacting your life so that you can make better choices.

• The basics of techniques that will help you to take control of stress and decrease your risk of developing a chronic disease and can lead to a decreased need for medications.
