For instance, one of the first things that happens when the body undergoes stress is blood is diverted away from your digestive tract to your large muscles causing the stomach and intestines to empty their contents preparing the body for quick action. The fight or flight syndrome. That's why when some people experience stress, anxiety or nervousness; they also experience stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.

Life is Stressful! Yes, everything you experience has the potential to induce signs of stress. What is more important is how you cope with stress.

Your response to your signs of stress is the thing you need to control. Stress triggers will always be around, so make a mental note about how you feel when you’re relaxed and free of your signs of stress. Use that feeling as your point of reference. When you feel your signs of stress building up, you want to be able to bring your emotions back to the awareness of how your body feels when you are relaxed and stress-free. You want to stop your signs of stress before the impact hits you.
Stress is interesting. It usually concentrates in specific parts of your body. You may get headaches, backaches or stress knots in your neck or shoulders. For instance, if stress collects in your upper body, you may also feel a heat sensation in your chest as your stress levels and signs of stress rise. What can you do about these sign of stress? Put something cold on the center of your chest to reduce the sensation of heat, and do two or three repetitions of breathing exercises to prevent the stress from building up. Breathe in deeply and slowly through your noise to the count of five, and breathe out slowly through your mouth to the count of six. Don't let stress build. Stop stress the moment you notice your signs of stress rising.
