Key Takeaways

  • Stress is a state of ‘threat’ which can either be acute or chronic
  • Low levels of stress (eustress) can have positive effects on motivation, excitement and performance.
  • High levels of stress (distress) can have negative effects on the body, and that’s when management techniques can be useful
  • When cortisol release is triggered, you feel a sense of alertness as the body diverts energy away from the immune and digestive systems
  • Aerobic exercise is important to build into your daily routine for calming effects on your body
  • Consume a variety of food groups, vitamins and minerals and reduce processed foods to reduce inflammation and boost our overall immune system
