What are the signs of stress? You probably already have a
personal stress gauge and know your own symptoms of
stress.  
Stress is extremely personal, and so is your reaction
to stressful scenarios, that's why the signs and symptoms of
stress tend to vary from person to person.  

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.
  • Anxious
  • Mind-racing
  • Chest palpitations
  • Problems concentrating
  • Anxiety
  • Easily irritated
  • Avoiding people and responsibilities
  • Focusing on negative thoughts
  • Anger issues
  • Headaches
  • Digestive problems
  • Muscle tension and pain
  • Sleep issues
  • Fatigue
  • High blood pressure
  • Weight loss or gain
  • Skins problems - breakouts, rashes,
    hives
  • Hair loss
  • Decreased sex drive
  • Nervous behaviors - nail biting, pacing,
    teeth grinding
Get Pro-Active About Stress Relief
If you recognize these signs of stress and experience even three of these
symptoms simultaneously, you are probably dealing with a great deal of stress.
All of these symptoms have the potential to harm your health and emotional
well-being.  If you think your stress is out of your control, or something you feel
you truly cannot handle, consult your doctor immediately. The point is to be
pro-active against stress.  If you do nothing to reduce or relieve the stress in
your life, your health will most certainly suffer.  Can these signs of stress make
you sick?  They sure can.  Can these signs of stress age you?  You know they
can.  What triggers your signs of stress?  Again, it varies from person to
person, but it could be one, or a combination of the stress-triggers listed below.

Control Stress
Yes, everything you experience has the potential to induce stress in your life.  
What is more important is how you cope with stress.  Think about how you
personally deal with your signs of stress right now.  Do you tense up?  Does your
chest heat up and feel full of anxiety? Does your stomach do a dance?  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 any signs of stress.  Remember that feeling, and
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
stress before your symptoms of stress negatively impact you.

The Gift of Spa
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 a sensation of heat rising in your chest area when you are
feeling stressed?  Put something cold on the center of your chest to reduce the
sensation of heat.  Even if the heat in your chest is the beginning of a panic
attack, you can greatly reduce the impact of this symptom of stress by stopping
the sensation of heat from building up in your chest.  Put a cold cloth, or a cold
object on the affected area and stop that symptom of stress in its tracks.

You can also 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 are rising.
