ELIMINATE STRESS AND ANXIETY FROM YOUR LIFE : The greatest weapon against stress & anxiety is Stay focused on now

Most people experience stress and anxiety from time to time. Stress is any demand placed on your brain or physical body. People can report feeling stressed when multiple competing demands are placed on them. The feeling of being stressed can be triggered by an event that makes you feel frustrated or nervous. Anxiety is a feeling of fear worry or unease. It can be a reaction to stress or it can occur in people who are unable to identify significant stressors in their life. Stress and anxiety are not always bad. In the short term they can help you overcome a challenge or dangerous situation. Examples of everyday stress and anxiety include worrying about finding a job feeling nervous before a big test or being embarrassed in certain social situations. If we did not experience some anxiety we might not be motivated to do things that we need to do (for instance studying for that big test!). However if stress and anxiety begin interfering with your daily life it may indicate a more serious issue. If you are avoiding situations due to irrational fears constantly worrying or experiencing severe anxiety about a traumatic event weeks after it happened it may be time to seek help.
