At Charlotte Labee Supplements, we think this is the perfect time to dedicate a blog to the impact of stress. As you are no doubt aware, there is a lot of uncertainty and anxiety in society right now; for two years around Corona and now the war between Russia and Ukraine has been added.
Among other things, people wonder to what extent we will also be affected by the war? And how do we deal with so many refugees we see through the news? Seeing so many unpleasant images does not go unnoticed by the brain. In addition, daily life also goes on and you have to comply with everything that is asked of you because of your work, family or other social obligations. Your brain can then become quite overstimulated and this creates stress in your body.
The cause and effects of stress
Many people have become so accustomed to the negative patterns and thought flow that they are unaware of the hormonal stress response in their bodies. Often they have even developed one or more coping mechanisms in their childhood, with which they were able to alleviate pain, anger or their sadness. The fact that we have many more stimuli to deal with than we used to does not contribute to this. We all have smartphones, can be reached all day and are exposed to a lot of radiation. In addition, the diet of the average Dutch person does not have a positive effect on the quality of intestinal flora and many suffer from deficiencies of certain vitamins or minerals. These and other stimuli cause us to be overloaded. As a result, more and more people struggle with depression, loneliness and burnout.
Unconscious vs. conscious
Every human being is driven as much as 95% from the subconscious mind. In addition, 95% of the thoughts you have today are the same as the thoughts you had yesterday. When your brain is filled with negative patterns, negative thoughts are repeated every day. Each time this happens, stress hormones are released and thus the chronic stress response keeps going. Therefore, it is important to discover and change patterns in the subconscious mind.
