Anxiety is a normal physiological response to threat. The current pandemic means that society as a whole has a lower threshold for stress than usual.
It’s normal to feel stressed but are you at a tipping point?
- Not sleeping
- Unable to switch off at the end of the day
- Feeling relationships are breaking down
The most effective means of decreasing the build-up of stress in your body is to move – go for a walk or explore the myriad of you-tube yoga classes.
Exercise decreases the level of the body’s stress hormones as well as increasing the production of endorphins – chemicals in your brain that help lift your mood and act as painkillers. It only takes twenty minutes of movement to have these effects!!
