STRESS

By N., Sam M.S.

Is the state which is seen in response to internal or external stressors. Every system of the body responds to stress in varying ways. Stress enlists changes affecting almost every system of the body, influencing how people feel and behave.

One of the most common ways to reduce stress is by going for a run. That's because it gets your heart rate up and lets you clear your mind. If you want to reduce stress at home, then a cube aquarium can help you reduce stress and lower blood pressure just by looking at it.

STRESS: "Stress brings mental and physical disturbance in living beings. Stress may emulate itself as either physical or mental."
