Stress is the body’s automatic response
(physical, mental, and emotional) to any
stressor.

It is a natural and unavoidable part of life,

and it can be empowering and motivating,
or harmful and potentially dangerous.
Effects of Stress on Wellness

Not all stress is bad. Infact, the stress associated with riding
a roller coaster, watching a scary movie, or scaling a cliff
can enhance these experiences.

When you are in a stressful situation, your body launches a

physical response. Your nervous system springs into action,
releasing hormones that prepare you to either fight or take
off. It's called the "fight or flight" response, and it's why,
when you're in a stressful situation, you may notice that your
heartbeat speeds up, your breathing gets faster, your
muscles tense, and you start to sweat.
