Stress is a normal reaction to daily problems, but it becomes unhealthy when it hampers your day-to-day functioning. Stress is a causative factor for many diseases affecting various body systems, thereby leading to health issues, such as cardiovascular problems, like hypertension, endocrinological disturbances, like hormonal imbalance, gut disorders, like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, psychological disorders, like Anxiety neurosis and panic disorders, and headache with a migraine.

What is Homeostasis?

To work efficiently and achieve a better outcome, we must handle stress well with a calm mind.

Our body maintains a sense of equilibrium known as Homeostasis for the smooth functioning of various systems of the body in harmony. Our brain and heart are the two important systems of the body that work together in coordination with other body systems for proper functioning and communication.

Our body, sometimes, experiences imbalance when it comes to handling stress and tension. So, when we experience stress, it’s time to fight out our stress triggers, find out the root cause of all health problems, and maintain a state of healthy balance. Chronic stress disrupts the immune system and causes many health problems. When the body goes into the sense of imbalance, it hampers not only the immune system but also affects your productivity at work. Chronic stress leads to adrenal fatigue or adrenal burn-out.

Full recovery from this state of imbalance of Hypothalmic-Pituitary-Adrenal dysfunction or adrenal fatigue can take anywhere from 4 months to 2 years to get back to normalcy. The relief in common symptoms, such as irritability, fatigue, tiredness, sleeplessness, lack of focus and concentration, weak memory, and emotional irritability, can be improved by maintaining a sense of equilibrium, thus rectifying the adrenal fatigue syndrome.
