It flushes hormones in the body to prepare systems for preventing or facing danger. This is called the response to "fight-or-flight or freeze.".When we face a challenge, it's part of our physical response. The body activates resources to protect us by either preparing us to stay and fight or to escape as quickly as possible. Lifestyle factors that cause this reaction are called Stressors. Examples include noise, antisocial behavior, a speeding car, scary movie moments, or even a first date out. The more we experience Stressors, the more we tend to feel Stressed.Stress can be both a powerful motivator as well as a damaging hindrance. It all depends on how you use it! When experiencing some sort of pressure in life, we call this stress. Stress is usually the result of some sort of demand in our life, and we experience stress when the demands are high. Stress is the body telling you to act, which means stress can be positive or negative depending on how you use it.This summit provides an incredible platform for people from various countries and industries to engage socialize and interact with extensive experience speakers from all over the world. Be part of this virtual summit to figure out more about Stress disorders, treatment/therapy, and resilience building.We look forward to your participation in the virtual summit on Stress Management revolutions.For any enquiries, please inbox us at info@gymha.org or WhatsApp +61469216538.Let's connect:https://gymhaeysstressmanagementsummit2020.eventbrite.com.auFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Global-Youth-Mental-Health-Awareness-GYMHA-318074815739705/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/global-youth-mental-health-awareness-gymha/?viewAsMember=trueTwitter: https://twitter.com/GymhaOrgAbout the organizer:Global Youth Mental Health Awareness (GYMHA) Not-For-Profit organisation was launched in Australia last year in response to the growing need to communicate and engage with professionals and the youth of the community, to the issues associated with Youth Mental Health and the stigma associated with those individuals who may seek help.
