Stress can be defined as the body’s reaction when faced with adverse situations or circumstances. This reaction is known as ‘fight-or-flight’ reaction and can be both emotional and physical in nature. Stress can also be defined as strained physical, mental or emotional state. When an individual feels threatened, the nervous system produced hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol. This leads to elevated blood pressure, tightening of muscles, quick breathing, sharpening of senses and much more. Stress is not always bad, in small amount also known as acute stress it can help excite an individual and act as a motivational factor.
