HOW TO HEAL EMOTIONAL STRESS

The very tedious type of stress to adapt with and manage is emotional stress. Because, it is often self-created, it can emerge from nowhere and the stress caused by it only increases the emotional feelings. Therefore, as the emotional stress increases, the emotions get bad, increasing the emotional stress. Thus, the problem regenerates the cause and the problem gets worse.

Emotional stress does not arise from a sudden shock. It can also emerge from a total emotional strain that sums up to an heightening strain that prevents a person from thoughts about anything other than the problems that seem to have no solution. Then, as the stress increases, the mind is left in its own cocoon of stress that can only call attention to it, cutting the person off from the world outside. Thus, emotional stress can lead to detachment, segregation and inability to concentrate, fatigue, and even memory or brain problems.

Emotional stress is often triggered by a dramatic event that puts a person's nervous system under severe strain. This could be an event such as losing a loved one, seeing someone die, or being put into a life-threatening situation. An event like this can put serious strain on a person's mind and nerves and the incredible strain can cause changes in the way that the brain works. In fact, a severe emotional strain could even cause someone to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder.

Unfortunately, emotional stress also increases moodiness,(the state of one’s feelings or well being) which can often make things worse. In fact, those attacks of emotional excess can turn emotional excess up to unbearable levels, leading to further attacks. Then, as these bouts of emotional stress keep adding up, it all becomes too much and the sufferer is left almost completely lost and alone in their own cycle of emotion that hammers incessantly at the brain causing more distress to the patients or bearer.

The following highlights the possible solutions of emotional problems;

LOWERING SALT INTAKE

When it comes to health, sodium (salt) has drawn a considerable amount of attention because of its relationship to high blood pressure. High blood pressure is a leading risk factor for heart attack, stroke and kidney disease. Scientists have discovered that some people’s blood pressure is sensitive to excess sodium in the diet.

            Because high blood pressure is such a serious health problem, most of the salt comes from processed foods; however, only about 15 percent of the sodium in the average diet is added in the kitchen or at the table. The top sources of salt in the diet include processed meats, prepackaged meals, fast foods, canned and dry soups, cheese, salted snack foods and certain condiments. The best way to learn how much sodium is in a food is to read the label. Foods that provides over 300 milligram per serving are particularly high in sodium. For a single food item to carry the term “healthy” on the label, it must contain 360 fewer milligrams of sodium per serving. Following is a list of foods particularly high in sodium:

·        Canned and dry soup

·        Prepackaged meals

·        Soy sauce

·        Salted popcorn

·        Processed cheese

·        Cured Ham

When we’re born with a preference for sweet tastes, salt is an acquired taste. Many people find that after cutting down on salt, many foods that they used to enjoy tastes too salty.
