How does stress affect physical health?
Stress is not just an emotional experience—it directly impacts physical health. When the body is under stress, it releases cortisol and adrenaline, which prepare it for “fight or flight.” While helpful in emergencies, chronic stress keeps these systems activated, leading to fatigue, headaches, weakened immunity, and increased risk of heart disease. Digestive issues, sleep disturbances, and muscle tension are also common. Stress can worsen existing health problems, making recovery slower. Managing stress through mindfulness, regular exercise, deep breathing, and supportive connections can protect both body and mind. Seeking professional guidance may be necessary when stress feels unmanageable.
