 In our modern, fast-paced world, stress is becoming a very common component in our everyday lives. It has become so common, in fact, that we no longer seem to notice stress until it has compounded into something bigger and has started affecting our health. Stress, or rather, stress hormones (a primary stress hormone like cortisol), are released into the body to trigger our “fight or flight” response. In dire situations, these hormones help elevate our energy supplies, increase the concentration of glucose in our blood, and even help our brain use glucose optimally for quicker decision making. However, long-term activation of the body’s stress system could cause a host of health problems — anxiety, depression, heart disease – to name a few. Therefore, it is important we learn of ways to relieve ourselves of stress. Below are five simple ways to relieve stress: 1. CBD Oil You’ve probably heard of CBD quite often this whole year. There is good reason for that. Aside from its uses in alleviating the symptoms of epilepsy, it is also being used as a natural means of reducing anxiety and a great way to relieve stress. This is because all mammals have an endocannabinoid system. This is a network of CBD receptors along our central nervous system. These receptors react to CBD by fixing imbalances, strengthening our immune system, and relieving symptoms of stress and anxiety. So a couple of drops of CBD oil every day might just be a great way to help relieve stress.

I was really curious on what does CBD means. I think I really need it right now. I was really stress in my work and I really wanted to do something new. I really wanted to be free for a while. Since I was engaged in my work, I have no enough time to be myself. I was busy making things for the company and I was forgetting that I aged too. It saddens me to reach the age with limited experience when it comes to socializing and such. 4/16/2020 08:30:42 pm
That was a good help. I was really looking for ways to reduce my stress. I cannot even sleep in the evening because of my stress, even nightmares are there. I used to take a lot of sleeping pills, but now, I guess it won't effect anymore. I also tried using candle light perfume of lavender. It somehow helps, but I always wake up at midnight and do not get enough sleep. It is very tiring and reading your blogs help me. Leave a Reply. |
