The Real Deal on Stress Management

Experience True Relaxation

Stress is an integral part of one’s life. It is one of the forces that move us around. Stress is usually classified into two – Eustress and Distress. Eustress (true stress) allows us to perform better while Distress (bad stress) weakens us which could eventually lead to various health-related conditions.

Stress affects four areas of our lives – physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral areas. When you are stressed, you would notice that you have palpitations, you become irritable and restless, you have dyspepsia.

So how do we deal with this? Here are some stress management steps to keep fatigue at bay:

1. Be aware of the early signs and symptoms of stress. Are you becoming irritable? Do you suffer from diarrhea? Are you experiencing feelings of guilt, anger, anxiety or depression? Are you becoming hyperacidic? Alone, these symptoms could be indicative of other medical conditions. Together, however, they could be indicative of stress. 2. Stay away from stressors. Avoid over committing and learn the art of delegation. Keep in mind that you can only do so much. Let other people handle things that are beyond your skills. Learn to say “no”. Oftentimes, we are ashamed to say “no” that we often find ourselves overworked.

3. Time Management. Learn to balance your time among family, work, leisure and friends.

4. Learn to relax your mind and body. Set aside some time for yourself. Sleep at least 7 to 8 hours a day. Try aromatherapy to soothe your mind.

5. Exercise regularly and eat nutritious food.

6. Allow yourself to have some fun. Oftentimes, we are too caught up with our work that we forget to have time for some fun. Laugh more to release stress.

7. Find someone who can give you support and then share your feelings with him or her. This creates a catharsis for all your pent-up emotions.

One way to relieve stress is aromatherapy. Aromatherapy spa products relieve stress by using relaxation agents in their oils, candles and ever body candles. These relaxation products can be just want you need to for your body to relax and refresh.

Immune System Support

posted by Mijas Inc

November 24, 2009

Without our immune systems, we would get sick from every germ we encountered. For our immune systems to work at their best, we need to have a healthy diet, low stress level, and get plenty of sleep. This can be a pretty tall order to fill in this day and age. Essential oils can help make up the difference when we are aren’t eating right, under a lot of stress, and tired.

Essential oils can provide the body with the vitamins its not getting from our poor diet. These vitamins help the immune system fight off any microbes and pathogens that are trying to infect our bodies. Because essential oils are a natural “enemy” of these invaders, pathogens and microbes have not been shown to be able to develop a resistance to them. Essential oils can also help reduce stress. One way is through aromatherapy. Not only are you inhaling the essential oils into your body, the right combinations of scents can have a calming effect and reduce stress levels. Using the right essential oils, like chamomile in tea, can help us wind down from a hard day and get to sleep, which helps reduce both stress and fatigue.
