Your body:

Stress is not an illness itself, but if it isn't under control it can cause serious illnesses, such as heart disease, asthma, stroke, diabetes and some types of cancer. Spotting the early signs of stress, like sweating, loss of appetite, headaches and loss of concentration will help prevent it getting worse.

Your mind:

If you are stressed you may feel worried, anxious, irritable or have low self-esteem. You may also notice that you lose your temper more easily, drink more or act unreasonably.

Stress and sleep:

Your mood and how well you sleep affect each other. Feeling stressed can mean you don't sleep well enough, and if you don't sleep well enough this may make you feel more stressed.

Stress is a natural response of the body to atypical situation/ stressful environmental stimuli. The stress hormone such as cortisol and adrenaline is significant in ‘fight or flight response’ and works to the benefit of the body in short periods by reving up your body. However, perpetual stress can be detrimental to the body's health and cause symptoms such as insomnia, anxiety, and depression.

In the ‘fight or flight’ mode during an emergency, the response of the cardiovascular system to the stress hormones is to increase blood flow by increased heart rate and constricted vessels. The respiratory system response is by increasing breathing rate and depth of the breaths.

Hi there! The answer you're looking for is anaerobic exercise.

Anaerobic means 'without air', and as such, has to use energy created by the body to function. These particular types of exercises are usually performed at a higher intensity than aerobic exercises.

4vir4ik [10]

The concept of health promotion provides opportunities and challenges for cancer nurses to work in partnership with other healthcare providers to enhance the health and quality of life of cancer patients.

In many countries, cancer is the leading or the second leading cause of death.1,2 The incidence of cancer has continued to increase steadily worldwide throughout the last century. Because of advances in early cancer detection and cancer treatments, the 5-year survival rates of all cancer patients have increased dramatically worldwide. Therefore, it is critical to plan for the future health of today's cancer patients by implementing health promotion interventions during and after treatment.3 The need for health promotion may be even more critical for people with cancer whose quality of life and ability to continue living independently often heavily rely on maintaining their health, which may be significantly compromised by cancer.

Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve their health.” Health Promotion Glossary, 1998

A brief history of Health Promotion

The first International Conference on Health Promotion was held in Ottawa in 1986, and was primarily a response to growing expectations for a new public health movement around the world. It launched a series of actions among international organizations, national governments and local communities to achieve the goal of "Health For All" by the year 2000 and beyond.
