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.

Why stress happens and how to manage it?luxuryperfume
stress is a natural feeling of not being able to cope with specific demands and events. However, stress can become a chronic condition if a person does not take steps to manage it.
These demands can come from work, relationships, financial pressures, and other situations, but anything that poses a real or perceived challenge or threat to a person’s well-being can cause stress.
Stress can be a motivator, and it can even be essential to survival. The body’s fight-or-flight mechanism tells a person when and how to respond to danger. However, when the body becomes triggered too easily, or there are too many stressors at one time, it can undermine a person’s mental and physical health and become harmful.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

2. Introduction
Modern life is full of hassles, deadlines,
frustrations, and demands.
For many people, stress is so common place that
it has become a way of life.
Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help
you perform under pressure and motivate you to
do your best.
But when you’re constantly running in
emergency mode, your mind and body pay the
price.
3. BRIEF HISTORY

28. Hans Selye's Model of Stress
Stressors like heat, pain, toxins, viruses, cause
the body to respond with a fight-or-flight
response.
Stress consists of physiological reactions
that occur in three stages:
Alarm Phase
Resistance Phase
Exhaustion Phase
29. Alarm Phase
Upon encountering a stressor, body reacts
with “fight-or-flight” response and
sympathetic nervous system is activated.
Hormones such as cortisol and adrenalin
released into the bloodstream to meet the
threat or danger.
The body’s resources now mobilized.
30. Resistance Phase
Parasympathetic nervous system returns
many physiological functions to normal levels
while body focuses resources against the
stressor.
Blood glucose levels remain high, cortisol and
adrenalin continue to circulate at elevated
levels, but outward appearance of organism
seems normal.
Increase HR, BP, breathing
Body remains on red alert.
31. Exhaustion Phase
If stressor continues beyond body’s capacity,
organism exhausts resources and becomes
susceptible to disease and death.
32.
33. Burnout
A psychological process resulting from
work stress that results in:
Emotional exhaustion
Depersonalization
Feelings of decreased accomplishment
34. INDICATORS OF BURNOUT:
Emotional
Exhaustion
Depersonalization Low Personal
Accomplishment
Feel drained by work Have become
calloused by job
Cannot deal with
problems effectively
Feel fatigued in the
morning
Treat others like
objects
Do not have a
positive influence on
others
Frustrated Do not care what
happens to other
people
Cannot understand
others’ problems or
identify with them
Do not want to work
with other people
Feel other people
blame you
No longer feel
exhilarated by your
job
36. INDIVIDUAL STRATERGIES
Biofeedback: Biofeedback is the process of
gaining greater awareness of many
physiological functions primarily using
instruments that provide information on the
activity of those same systems, with a goal of
being able to manipulate them at will. Some
of the processes that can be controlled
include brainwaves, muscle tone, skin
conductance, heart rate and pain perception.
37. Conti…
Biofeedback may be used to improve health,
performance, and the physiological changes
which often occur in conjunction with changes to
thoughts, emotions, and behaviour.
Eventually, these changes may be maintained
without the use of extra equipment, even though
no equipment is necessarily required to practice
biofeedback actually.
Biofeedback has been found to be effective for
the treatment of headaches and migraines.
38. Time management
Time management is the act or process of
planning and exercising conscious control
over the amount of time spent on specific
activities, especially to increase effectiveness,
efficiency or productivity.
A time management system is a designed
combination of processes, tools, techniques,
and methods.
