Stress. A general term with a broad application. Signs:
Fatigue. General fatigue is often a sign of stress. No energy for movement is a clear indication that the mind and body are worn down.
Decreased self-regulation. Are you indulging and grabbing sweets to snack on or an extra glass or wine at night?
Looking for ways to feel better? Bad habits rear their ugly heads here as escapism infiltrates our path to change. All stress is cumulative. Simply put, it adds up. Adding more stress via excessively difficult training sessions or group fitness classes will not make it better. Remember this: it doesn't need to be painful. Do you want more stress in your life? Is stress associated with progress and rewards? Discard those thoughts when working out. The other side of stress. Adaptations arise from bouts of stress and recovery. This may represent itself at your job, working on a project deadline or sales goal. If met there is often awards and incentives. Positive right? Maybe not... subconsciously you may be seeking out stress or stressful situations to improve your health. Chronic conditions arise when we fall out of balance. Work / Life. Training / Recovery. Hard / Easy. Polarity is a good thing! Step 1: recognize stress. Step 2: manage the cause of stress. Step 3: eliminate the stress if you can. Step 4: begin your day with mindfulness. Step 5: end your day with physical activity and mindful nutrition that brings peace back to yourself. Step 6: review your day and plan for tomorrow.
