Drink some water, even if you don't feel thirsty - it can only do you good. And try to respect your body whether you're tired or in need of fresh air. In this way, you enforce the feeling of care you take for yourself. My brief explanation of why to love yourself begins with self-care.

Stress has become such an accepted condition of being in our society, it's scary. If we're not constantly running from meeting to meeting, multi-tasking, and being online all the time, we tend to feel like people think we're lazy, unproductive, or antisocial.

For our well-being, our looks, and most importantly, our health, we need to be free from stress as I am going to explain in a bit. Preventing it is not always easy but it is necessary to try, so let's find out how we can increase our resistance to stress, so that we stay young and beautiful.

First, and I'm sure you've heard some of what I'm about to say now, let's briefly explain why stress is so harmful to our health.

Negative effects of stress on our health:

Constant stress can make even the most beautiful, strong, performing superwoman super-weak, mentally and physically exhausted, flabby and overly emotional.

Medical research has proven time and again that stress impairs our immune system.
It slows down our digestion, breaks down our skin, hardens our muscles, and affects our sleep patterns, and leads us to all kinds of negative effects.
Studies have shown that prolonged stress can also lead to mental illnesses, burnout, chronic fatigue, etc.
Stress is actually one of the main causes of excess fat. When we are stressed, angry or anxious, our body floods with adrenaline and produces a stress hormone called cortisol, which gets us into fight mode (which is our body's response to resist or run away). .
It releases sugar into our blood as energy. But since we're not actually physically fighting or running away from the situation we're stressed about, this sugar keeps floating around in our bodies until it's on our stomachs and around our waists. Does not settle as fat.

So, do yourself a favor and check again if the thing you are stressing about is really worth your health and looking great!

Ways to reduce stress levels:

Now let's talk about what we can do to reduce stress.

Regular exercise and meditation keep stress levels under control.
To avoid stress, first, stop worrying about someone else's opinion, stop being representative, stop pleasing people, and learn to say "no."
Sometimes, when you're under extreme stress at work, it's better to stay home and take a break than go to the gym that week.

What else can you do?

From a nutritional point of view -

In your diet, reduce certain foods that put your body under the extra stress that comes from dealing with them.
I'm talking specifically about sugar and processed foods, but also about caffeine and alcohol.
Yet, if we can't eliminate stress in our lives, how can we support our bodies to deal with it better?
Great foods to give us immunity boost are vitamin C and other antioxidants like berries or leafy green vegetables.

You should also eat anti-bacterial foods such as garlic, foods that contain high amounts of zinc (such as shellfish or chickpeas), and yogurt and those with active cultures of beneficial gut bacteria. Other great stress-reducing foods are ginger, oats and almonds.

Next, we build up our stress gradient, which can be done by increasing the levels of certain neurotransmitters. This is our personal range of stress tolerance. These are chemical messengers that help our cells communicate with each other.

First, we want to increase serotonin, also known as the "happiness molecule," as it is essential for a positive mood. To manufacture serotonin, we need to manufacture its precursor tryptophan, which is found in eggs, salmon, milk, nuts, or tofu, for example. We then help our bodies access tryptophan by eating healthy complex carbs.

Also avoid excessive coffee, as it inhibits serotonin production. The second neurotransmitter we want to boost is dopamine, which gives us motivation. It is also a growth hormone, so it keeps us young. We can increase dopamine levels by eating the right foods, such as eggs, or fish, or beets, or by drinking green tea or exercising.

Make a resolution of 3 things to do to better deal with stress.

The first thing should be related to how you can reduce the stress in your life.
Secondly, how can you increase your immune system (like eating curd with jamun in the morning).
The third is how you can increase your stress shield (like eating fish once a week, or eating only 1 instead of 3 coffees a day).

Conclusion:

On how we can better deal with stress and stay young and slim, let's reduce the feeling of being stressed through exercise, meditation, mental work, and eating well. And bolster our stress response by building up our immune system and boosting our stress shield.
