Acute Stress: 4 Steps to Ease Away the Consequences

"Stress is the trash of modern life - we all generate it but if you don’t dispose of it properly, it will pile up and overtake your life." - Danzae Pace

There are tons of material written about the daily stress and anxiety. And there is very little written about the brief in duration stress, also called acute stress.

Acute stress is a reaction arising in response to a terrifying event - an immediate threat, either physical or psychological. The perception of threat triggers the response. We usually call it a "shock" - that is emotional state of shock, please do not confuse with the medical condition.

Acute stress may be brief in duration although intense physiologically. During an acute stress response, the autonomic nervous system is activated and the body experiences increased levels of cortisol, adrenalin and other hormones. They increase the heart rate, quicken breathing and raise the blood pressure, which constricts the blood vessels in many parts of the body. Acute stress affects the brain by increasing alertness and decreasing the perception of pain. The blood rushes to the brain, lungs, heart, and the big muscles, preparing the body to fight or escape.

Stress evidence shows that acute stress is a factor in the following major conditions: depressed immune function, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, endocrine dysfunction, insulin resistance and diabetes, macular degeneration, neurological dysfunction (Parkinson’s disease), and obesity. All of these conditions can happen as the aftermath of the psychological shock. This is why it is not advisable to suppress angry or sad feelings. Try to get rid of stress effects regularly. Otherwise, it will pile up and make you sick.

I use 4 steps to reduce acute stress consequences. Try them, for your benefit.

To calm down your nerves – move! You can literally walk away from the harmful effects of acute stress. When you run or walk, rhythmic body movements relax your thoughts and help your body release stress. If you do not want or can not go outside, find a jumping rope and jump.
To unwind your brain – use essential oils! Essential oils can assist with the coping. By their nature, essential oils are antibacterial. So, they will help ward off infection when they are diffused in the air. This is useful in times of stress when the immune system may be week. All of the essential oils are concentrated. Before using them on your skin, they should be thinned with olive oil or sweet almond oil. The scents of the oils directly affect the most primitive and emotional centre of the brain, the limbic system. So, for example, lavender, sandalwood and ylang ylang can be used to calm raw nerves and promote restful sleep. Other oils like grapefruit, lemon and apple oils are better suited to stimulate and energize when the effects of stress include exhaustion.
To relax your muscles – stretch! Stretching reduces muscle tension, improves circulation and develops mental alertness. But the most important, it tunes your mind into your body and it makes you feel good.
To help your stomach – cleanse! There is probably no system in the body that is more affected by mind-body influences than the digestive tract. Stress can cause those familiar knots in the stomach, constipation, diarrhea, poor absorption of nutrients leading to further health problems. Colon cleansing will support health of your digestive system and help your body to recover from the effects of acute stress. The 30-day colon cleanse program will move the toxins produced by stress from your body. It works to improve nutrient absorption, so your cells will stop starving.
