The Best Places To Go And Retreat - Get Over Stress!

[Guest guest]

An interesting article I read in my email today about retreat. At first

glance of the title, I was thinking it must be introducing some places

we can go for retreat like resorts, beaches etc. To my pleasant

surprise, it is talking about non other than a place very near to us -

right in our home. This is truly something which you might be able to

create right in your home to help yourself to relax.

 

The stress of modern life can be overwhelming. When you have too much on

your mind, your body produces excess stress hormones like adrenaline,

non-adrenaline, and an adrenal-cortex hormone. Additionally, your body

experiences other changes. Your heart rate increases, your blood

pressure goes up, your respiration levels change, you begin to sweat,

and you become unable to process your food because digestion shuts down.

While moving or any type of physical action can slow or even stop the

effects of stress, sitting at your desk or in the car simply causes all

of the stress reactions in your body to continue. At some point, your

body becomes so full of the stress reactions; you can't handle the

simplest of daily tasks. This is the time to retreat from the everyday

stress of life.
