If left unmanaged, prolonged stress can negatively impact physical and mental health. However, practices like yoga, pranayama and meditation can help manage stress by inducing deep relaxation and balancing the body's systems. Regular practice of these techniques can help turn stress into a positive cycle and improve overall health and well-being.
The document discusses stress management and provides advice from various spiritual texts and figures. It defines stress and explores its physical, chemical, and emotional causes. It describes the optimal stress level according to Dr. Hans Selye and provides tips for managing stress through spiritual practices like yoga, meditation, maintaining equanimity, and cultivating qualities like patience, optimism, and compassion. Maintaining a balance of the three mind qualities (gunas) of sattva, rajas, and tamas is important for a stress-free life.
The document discusses various sources and consequences of stress and provides techniques for managing stress. It discusses that stress is a normal part of life but can be overwhelming. It then discusses sources of stress such as the environment, social roles, physical health, and thoughts. Long-term stress can negatively impact health. The document then provides various stress management techniques including relaxation techniques like meditation, deep breathing, yoga and massage. It also discusses time management, cognitive techniques like thought stopping, social support, and ensuring a work-life balance.
Stress is a person's response to threatening or challenging events called stressors. Stress can be categorized as either eustress, which are good stressors like accomplishments, or distress, which are bad stressors like health problems. Hans Selye developed the general adaptation syndrome to describe the body's three stage response to stressors - alarm, resistance, and exhaustion. Managing stress involves identifying if you are stressed, the stressor causing it, the reason for the stressor, selecting a coping strategy, and evaluating its effectiveness.
There are two rules for stress management: everyone experiences stress, but stress can be reduced, managed, and eliminated. Stress stems from fears about the future, a loss of control in the present, and regrets about the past. The main causes of stress are fears, regrets, and hopelessness. Stress is a physical, chemical, or emotional factor that causes tension and may contribute to disease. Stress management is personal and depends on one's personality, experiences, and what has worked previously. Much stress comes from feeling powerless over a situation or from internal or external conflicts. Stress can be personal, such as financial, relationship, or expectation stress, or work-related like relationship, workload, deadline, job security, or

This document provides an introduction to stress and its effects on the body. It defines stress and describes the physiological stress response. It then discusses different types of stress, distinguishing between good stress (eustress) and bad stress (distress). It outlines acute stress that occurs suddenly and chronic stress from long-lasting events. Signs and symptoms of stress overload are also listed. The document aims to educate about stress and its impact on physical and mental health.
This document discusses stress, its causes, types, signs, and management. It defines stress as the physical, mental, or emotional response to events that cause tension. There are two main types of stress: acute stress, which deals with near-term pressures, and chronic stress, which has a wearing effect if it continues long-term. Common causes of stress include work pressures, responsibilities, and health issues. Signs of stress can be physical like headaches or mental like difficulty concentrating. The document recommends strategies for managing stress such as relaxation exercises, physical activity, meditation, counseling, and maintaining a grateful attitude.
The document provides information on stress management techniques. It discusses that stress can be caused by both external factors like one's environment and internal factors like negative thinking. It then lists various stress management strategies such as regular exercise, meditation, spending time with social support systems, relaxing activities, and changing negative thought patterns. The document emphasizes that stress is controllable and managing it is important for one's overall well-being.
Stress can be caused by both internal and external factors and affects the body in various ways. When the brain perceives a threat, it signals the adrenal glands to release hormones like adrenaline and cortisol that increase heart rate, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels. For adolescents, common stressors include peer pressure, relationships, schoolwork, family problems, and physical changes of puberty. Stress can lead to ineffective coping behaviors like withdrawal, substance abuse, or acting out. The most effective strategies for adolescents to manage stress are problem-focused coping, social support, meditation, exercise, humor, and emotional regulation techniques.
Hans Selye identified three stages of stress: alarm, resistance, and exhaustion. Self-care and self-compassion techniques like deep breathing, exercise, social support, and self-compassion letters can help manage stress and prevent reaching the exhaustion stage. These practices promote well-being by reducing anxiety and depression while maintaining motivation without self-criticism.
Stress is the body's normal defense mechanism triggered by threatening or unsettling events, causing the fight-or-flight-or-freeze reaction and release of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol that sharpen senses and increase heart rate, blood pressure, and muscle tension in order to stay focused and alert. However, overstress can negatively impact physical and mental health as well as relationships, so it is important to know your limits, avoid worrying about uncontrollable things, and maintain a positive mindset.

La acusación alternativa es una etapa intermedia del proceso penal no definida explícitamente en el código procesal penal. Su estudio es importante para que jueces y actores del proceso conozcan mejor su importancia, especialmente cuando la víctima participa. A menudo se resta importancia a esta parte del proceso, olvidando que puede generar la continuación del caso cuando el Ministerio Público no tiene interés en la persecución, por lo que la acusación alternativa debe estudiarse detenidamente para mejorar las deficiencias en su aplicación.

Once a system becomes successful, releasing fixes and improvements to its backends without affecting user productivity becomes more challenging. Over time the need arises to re-think the architecture of the system and release its implementation to better support the most popular (and potentially unanticipated) use cases and growth. In globally distributed systems, like the distributed build system at Google which serves millions of requests per day, the luxury of downtime is not an option. In this talk, we’ll look at the general patterns that allow us to replace the previous production system with a new architecture, with no downtime or user visible effects.

OECx: Building Openly Licensed MOOCs to Enhance Re-use, Interactivity, and Le...Una Daly
The Open Education Consortium (OEC) launched a pilot in 2014 to demonstrate the power of re-using openly licensed course content to develop Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and revitalize and update existing OER/OCW in the process. Converting existing OCW into MOOCs offers OEC member institutions opportunities to gather information about how learners interact with the content and offers learners greater opportunities for interactivity with instructors, peers, and the content. Partnering with edX, OEC has offered member institutions the opportunity to develop MOOCs on a leading technology platform that provides different options for how learners engage in a course. Learners may choose to audit a course or sign-up for a verified certificate for a modest fee that can be used for academic or career enrichment.
Using their existing open courseware and open educational resources (OER), members have launched MOOCs that offer high-quality learning experiences with the option of a verified (fee-based) certificate available to learners throughout the world. Participating members in the pilot include the National Chiao Tung University, Tufts University, University Polytechnic of Madrid, Open University’s TESS India project, Anne Arundel Community College, and the University of Hokkaido. The courses range from the technology of energy, biology of water and health, introduction to helicopters, corporate social responsibility, teacher education, introduction to business, and the effects of radiation.
Panelist from the MOOC development team at Open University, University Polytechnic of Madrid, and University of Hokkaido will share best practices for developing and running openly licensed MOOCs. Lesson learned about developing MOOCs with OER and strategies for enhancing student engagement and interactivity will be shared.
The Open Education Consortium is a worldwide community of hundreds of higher education institutions and associated organizations committed to advancing open education and its impact on global education. We seek to instill openness as a feature of education around the world, allowing greatly expanded access to education while providing a shared body of knowledge upon which innovative and effective approaches to today’s social problems can be built.
EdX, a not-for-profit enterprise founded by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2012, was created for students and institutions that seek to transform themselves through cutting-edge technologies, innovative pedagogy, and rigorous courses. Through our institutional partners, the xConsortium, along with other leading global members, we present the best of higher education online, offering opportunity to anyone who wants to achieve, thrive, and grow.

This document discusses stress, what it is, and its effects. It defines stress as a normal reaction to events or thoughts that make one feel anxious or frustrated. Our thoughts about situations, not just the events themselves, determine whether we perceive something as stressful. Stress can be positive in small amounts by motivating us, but too much stress can harm our health. The document outlines common sources of stress including the environment, social roles, physiological factors, and thoughts. It also discusses signs of stress overload and various physical and mental effects stress can have on the body and brain.
The document discusses different types of stress, including acute stress which occurs in response to threatening events, episodic stress which occurs too frequently from unrealistic demands, and chronic stress which damages health over long periods. It also discusses potential stressors like life changes, illnesses, work or relationship issues. The effects of stress can include physical symptoms, mood changes, and unhealthy behaviors. Managing stress involves identifying sources, monitoring stress levels with a journal, and using strategies like avoiding unnecessary stressors, adapting coping methods, and relaxation techniques.
This document discusses stress, its effects on health, and strategies for managing stress. It defines stress and describes the two main stress responses: the short-term fight-or-flight response and the long-term general adaptation syndrome. Prolonged or chronic stress can negatively impact physical and mental health by increasing risks of illnesses like heart disease, suppressing the immune system, and potentially intensifying medical conditions. While stress hormones can boost short-term performance, constant stress typically harms work and social functioning. The document recommends time management, prioritization, exercise, relaxation, and seeking social support to help reduce stress.
The document discusses stress, its causes and effects on the body and mind. It defines stress as the body's response to threatening or demanding events. In moderate amounts, stress can be helpful by providing alertsness and focus. However, prolonged or excessive stress takes a toll physically and mentally. Common stressors include major life changes, work/financial issues, and unresolved problems. Both short-term and long-term effects of stress are explained. The summary concludes with an overview of strategies for managing stress, such as identifying sources, developing healthier coping mechanisms, and learning to avoid, alter, adapt to or accept stressful situations.
Stress is the body’s physical and psychological response to a specific demand made of us or to an event in our life. In some cases it motivates and encourages us to complete a task we find difficult so that we can take pride in ourselves and what we achieve.

3. Young children are more vulnerable to stress due to their developmental capabilities. Excessive stress can have immediate and long-term negative effects on children's adaptability, behavior, and health. Chronic stress from poverty, violence or bullying poses more risks to children than acute short-term stress.
Stress is defined as a mental, physical, or emotional strain caused by demands exceeding an individual's ability to cope. It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) and is influenced by stressors in the environment. Common stress management techniques include exercise, relaxation, breathing exercises, and talking to others to reduce feelings of being overwhelmed and improve health and functioning.

Introduction
What is Stress ?
Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset in
some way. When you sense danger—whether it’s real or imagined—the body's defenses kick
into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight-or-flight-or-freeze” reaction,
or the stress response. The stress response body’s way of protecting you. When working
properly, it helps you stay focused, energetic, and alert. In emergency situations, stress can

save your life—giving you extra strength to defend yourself, for example, or spurring you to
slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. The stress also helps you rise to meet challenges.
Stress is what keeps you on your toes during a presentation at work, sharpens your
concentration when you’re attempting the game-winning free throw, or drives you to study
for an exam when you'd rather be watching TV. But beyond a certain point, stress stops being
helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your
relationships, and your quality of life.
What is Morality
Morality (from the Latin moralitas "manner, character, proper behavior") is the
differentiation of intentions, decisions, and actions between those that are distinguished as
proper and those that are improper: In other words, it is the disjunction between right and
wrong. Morality can be a body of standards or principles derived from a code of conduct from
a particular philosophy, religion, or culture, or it can derive from a standard that a person
believes should be universal .Morality may also be specifically synonymous with "goodness"
or "rightness." Moral philosophy includes moral ontology, or the origin of morals, as well
as moral epistemology, or what is known about morals. Different systems of expressing morality
have been proposed, including deontological ethical systems which adhere to a set of established
rules, and normative ethical systems which consider the merits of actions themselves. An
example of normative ethical philosophy is the Golden Rule which states that, "One should treat
others as one would like others to treat oneself.” Immorality is the active opposition to morality
(i.e. opposition to that which is good or right), while amorality is variously defined as an
unawareness of, indifference toward, or disbelief in any set of moral standards or principles.
Signs and Symptoms of Stress Overload
The following table lists some of the common warning signs and symptoms of stress.
The more signs and symptoms you notice in yourself, the closer you may be to stress overload.
Cognitive Symptoms Emotional Symptoms
• Memory problems
• Inability to concentrate
• Poor judgment
• Moodiness
• Irritability or short temper
• Agitation, inability to relax
Physical Symptoms Behavioral Symptoms
• Aches and pains
• Diarrhea or constipation
• Nausea, dizziness
• Eating more or less
• Sleeping too much or too little
• Isolating yourself from others
Keep in mind that the signs and symptoms of stress can also be caused by other
psychological or medical problems. If you’re experiencing any of the warning signs of stress,
it’s important to see a doctor for a full evaluation. Your doctor can help you in recognizing
whether your symptoms are stress- related or not.
Causes of Stress
The pressures and situations that cause stress are known as stressors. We usually think
of stressors as being negative, such as an exhausting work schedule or a rocky relationship.
However, anything that puts high demands on you or forces you to adjust can be stressful.
This includes positive events such as getting married, buying a house, going to college, or
receiving a promotion. Of course, not all stress is caused by external factors. Stress can also be
self-generated, for example, when you worry excessively about something that may or may
not happen, or have irrational, pessimistic thoughts about life.
3. Smriti Srivastava, Prof. H.K. Singh & Shailesh Kumar Singh : Impact of Stress on …… 73
Effects of Chronic Stress
The body doesn’t distinguish between physical and psychological threats. When you’re
stressed over a busy schedule, an argument with a friend, a traffic jam, or a mountain of bills,
your body reacts just as strongly as if you were facing a life-or-death situation. If you have a
lot of responsibilities and worries, your emergency stress response may be “on” most of the
time. The more your body’s stress system is activated, the harder it is to shut off. Long-term
exposure to stress can lead to serious health problems. Chronic stress disrupts nearly every
system in your body. It can raise blood pressure, suppress the immune system, increase the
risk of heart attack and stroke, contribute to infertility, and speed up the aging process. Long-
term stress can even rewire the brain, leaving you more vulnerable to anxiety and depression.
Causing Many Health Problems or Exacerbated by Stress Including:
• Any kind of Pain
• Heart disease
• Digestive problems
• Sleep problems
• Depression
• Weight problems
• Autoimmune diseases
• Skin problems, such as eczema
What is Burnout?
Burnout is a state of mental, emotional and physical exhaustion caused by excessive and
prolonged stress. It occurs when you feel overwhelmed and unable to meet constant demands.
As the stress continues, you begin to lose the interest or motivation that led you to take on a
certain role in the first place. Burnout reduces your productivity and saps your energy, leaving
you feeling increasingly helpless, hopeless, cynical, and resentful. Eventually, you may feel
that life is of no use and even you can commit suicide. Most of us have days when we feel
bored, overloaded, or unappreciated; when the dozen balls we keep in the air aren’t noticed,
let alone rewarded; when dragging ourselves out of bed requires the determination of
Hercules. If you feel like this most of the time, however, you may have burnout.
The Difference between Stress and Burnout
Stress Burnout
Characterized by over engagement Characterized by disengagement
Over reactive emotions Emotions are blunted
Produces urgency and hyperactivity Produces helplessness and hopelessness
Loss of energy Loss of motivation, ideals, and hope
Leads to anxiety disorders Leads to detachment and depression
Causes of Burnout
In many cases, burnout stems from your job. But anyone who feels overworked and
undervalued is at risk for burnout-from the hardworking office worker who hasn’t had a vacation
or a raise in two years to the frazzled stay-at-home mom struggling with the heavy responsibility
of taking care of three kids, the housework, and her aging father. But burnout is not caused solely
by stressful work or too many responsibilities. Other factors contribute to burnout, including your
lifestyle and certain personality traits. What you do in your downtime and how you look at the
world can play just as big of a role in causing burnout as work or home demands.
Burnout Prevention TIPS
• Day Should be Start With a Relaxing Rituals: Rather than jumping out of bed as soon
as you wake up, spend at least fifteen minutes meditating, writing in your journal,
doing gentle stretches, or reading something that inspires you.
4. 74 Inspira- Journal of Commerce, Economics & Computer Science: April- June, 2016
• Adopt Healthy Eating, Exercising, and Sleeping Habits: When you eat right, engage in
regular physical activity, and get plenty of rest, you have the energy and resilience to
deal with life’s hassles and demands.
• Boundaries Should be Set: Don’t overextend yourself. Learn how to say “no” to
requests on your time. If you find this difficult, remind yourself that saying “no” allows
you to say “yes” to the things that you truly want to do.
Stress at Work
While some workplace stress is normal, excessive stress can interfere with your
productivity and impact your physical and emotional health. And your ability to deal with it can
mean the difference between success or failure. You can’t control everything in your work
environment, but that doesn’t mean you’re powerless-even when you’re stuck in a difficult
situation. Finding ways to manage workplace stress isn’t about making huge changes or
rethinking career ambitions, but rather about focusing on the one thing that’s always within
your control:
Learn How Academic Heads or Teachers Can Reduce Job Stress
It's in a academic head’s best interest to keep stress levels minimum in the workplace.
Heads’ can act as positive role models, especially in times of high stress. If a respected academic
head can remain calm in stressful work situations, it is much easier for his or her teachers’ to also
remain calm. Additionally, there are a number of organizational changes that academic head and
teachers’ can make to reduce workplace stress. These include:
Improve Communication
• To reduce uncertainty about their jobs and futures share information with teachers’.
• Roles and responsibilities of teachers’ should be clearly define.
• Communication should be friendly and efficient, not mean-spirited or petty.
Consult Your Teachers’
• Give workers opportunities to participate in decisions making.
• Scheduling and work rules should be consulting through teachers’.
• Avoid unrealistic deadlines. Be sure the workload is suitable to teachers’ abilities and
resources; Show that individual workers are valued.
• Offer rewards and incentives.
Cultivate a Friendly Social Climate
• Opportunities for providing social interaction among teachers’.
• Establish a zero-tolerance policy for harassment.
• Make management actions consistent with organizational values.
Stress Management
Learn How to Manage Stress
You may feel like the stress in your life is out of your control, but you can always control
the way you respond. Managing stress about taking charge: taking charge of your thoughts,
your emotions, your schedule, your environment, and the way you deal with problems. Stress
Management involves changing the stressful situation when you can, changing your reaction
when you can’t, taking care of yourself, and making time for rest and relaxation.
Remember the Four A’s: Avoid, Alter, Adapt, or Accept
• Avoid unnecessary stress. Not all stress can be avoided, but by learning how to say no,
distinguishing between “should” and “musts”.
• Alter the situation. If you can’t avoid a stressful situation, try to alter it. Instead of
bottling up your feelings and increasing your stress, respectfully let others know about
5. Smriti Srivastava, Prof. H.K. Singh & Shailesh Kumar Singh : Impact of Stress on …… 75
your concerns. Or be more willing to compromise and try meeting others halfway on an
issue.
• Adapt to the stressor. When you can’t change the stressor, try changing yourself.
Reframe problems or focus on the positive things in your life. If a task at work has you
stressed, focus on the aspects of your job you do enjoy.
• Accept the things you can’t change. There will always be stressors in life that you can’t
do anything about. Learn to accept the inevitable rather than rail against a situation and
making it even more stressful. Look for the upside in a situation—even the most
stressful circumstances can be an opportunity for learning or personal growth. Learn to
accept that no one, including you, is ever perfect.
Learning to Stay in the Present
A less formal approach to mindfulness can also help you to stay in the present and fully
participate in your life. You can choose any task or moment to practice informal mindfulness,
whether you are eating, showering, walking, touching a partner, or playing with a child or
grandchild. Attending to these points will help:
• Start by bringing your attention to the sensations in your body
• Breathe in through your nose, allowing the air downward into your lower belly. Let
your abdomen expand fully.
• Now breathe out through your mouth
• Notice the sensations of each inhalation and exhalation
• Proceed with the task at hand slowly and with full deliberation
• Engage your senses fully by noticing each sight, touch, and sound

Conclusion
Our prehistoric ancestors were free from facing city traffic and short- tempered bosses.,
but they had their share of psychological stress that produced no actual physical bodily insult.
From both a physical vis a vis psychological point, our ancestors lived a much more stressful
existence than we do today. However, we clearly make things worse for ourselves. Take
9. Smriti Srivastava, Prof. H.K. Singh & Shailesh Kumar Singh : Impact of Stress on …… 79
compulsive exercisers. These people can actually become addicted to strenuous exercise, because
this behavior imposes a severe stress on metabolism and results in the steady release of
endorphin. Responsible for "runner's high," this pain-killer is similar to morphine in its addictive
capabilities. Extreme exercise also releases cortical, which though useful in maintaining
circulatory and respiratory function, can lead to bone loss, hypertension, and death of brain cells.
In yet another scenario, meeting a deadline at work is a source of pressure, but is not life-
threatening, and yet it contributes to ill health by invoking an unnecessary release of stress
hormones i.e. Adrenaline. Are we stressed in today's society? Of course we are. But the
important thing to remember is that all animals, including ourselves, are confronted with
innumerable types of stress and always have been. We should ignore the incessant mantra of
ours being the Age of Stress and put things in a more historical and evolutionary perspective.
So at last I would like to say that there are so many options we have to get rid of stress but we
always try to ignore them just because of our hectic schedule. Today’s fact is we are running
after money and try to earn more and more just to compete other but we never think that this
competitive life has become a reason of losing our health and emotions. Psychologically we are
harming ourselves as well as our family. If we’ll not avoid it today then definitely it can badly
harm our future because stress is increasing day by day but still we have time to save
ourselves by so many mediums and mode as we have discussed above.
