Fight or Flight How to Harness the Power of Your Body’s Stress Response

Are you feeling overwhelmed by stress and its impact on your daily life? You’re not alone. I have been there, and my fix was to try and stem the pain through dental procedures. Only after three worn-out devices to prevent teeth grinding did I acknowledge that I had more control and power to change this.

The fight or flight response, also known as the hyperarousal or acute stress response, is something we all experience. But, this response can significantly impact our health and well-being in today’s fast-paced and ever-changing world.

The fight or flight response is activated in response to stress, and if activated too frequently or for too long, it can lead to chronic stress, which can result in negative health consequences such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and depression. It can also lead to emotions such as anxiety and fear, and in severe cases, the development of anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

But the good news is that by understanding the fight or flight response and how to manage it, we can better protect ourselves from the harmful effects of chronic stress and improve our overall health and well-being.
