Test your stress level

It’s no secret that living under stress can cause us serious emotional problems and even take a toll on our physical health. So why is it so difficult for us to take action to reduce stress and improve our lives? Researchers at Yale University finally have the answer. They found that stress reduces the volume of gray matter in areas of the brain responsible for self-control. So, being stressed actually makes it harder for you to cope with future stress because it reduces your ability to take charge of situations, manage stress, and prevent things from getting out of hand. This is a vicious cycle. But don’t lose heart. It’s not impossible to reduce stress; if you want to shift the effects, you just have to make stress management a higher priority. The sooner you start managing your stress effectively, the easier it will be to prevent unexpected stress from taking a toll on you in the future. Fortunately, the brain’s plasticity allows it to shape, change, and rebuild damaged areas as you develop new behaviors. Therefore, using healthy stress-reduction techniques can train your brain to handle stress more effectively and reduce the likelihood of adverse effects from stress in the future.
