Do you want to feel more calm, less anxious, and sleep better?
Stress and the brain
Our brains respond to both physical and psychological stress in very similar ways. Whether the threat is a dangerous situation or just a high-pressure meeting, the body activates the same stress response system, releasing adrenaline and cortisol.
This shifts us into a fight, flight, or freeze state. During this time, the amygdala (an area involved in detecting threats and emotions) becomes more active, while the prefrontal cortex (the part of the brain responsible for reasoning, planning, and impulse control) functions less effectively.
As a result, it becomes harder to think clearly, make balanced decisions, and manage our reactions.

Is overwhelm affecting your confidence?
Is overwhelm affecting your confidence?
Confidence is important for personal growth, decision-making, communication, relationships, resilience, self-esteem, success and happiness. Confidence allows us to try new things and even if we don’t succeed, it helps us to try again. It allows us to worry less and follow our path without over-focusing on the view of others. It allows us to handle challenges and pursue opportunities. Ultimately it allows you to unlock your full potential.
