Ten Stress Indicators – How stressed are You?

24/6/11

Read the ten points below and if you answer yes to 3 or more of these indicators, then you are living a stressful existence. If you respond to 5 or more of the statements below, then you are seriously stressed and need to take some positive action to improve your health and wellbeing.

  • Broken sleep, resulting in less than 5 hours sleep a night
  • Feeling overwhelmed and drained by day to day activities
  • Mood swings, quick to anger or upset with family and work colleagues
  • Memory loss and concentration issues. Distracted at work or with family demands
  • Headaches, sore eyes, tension in shoulders and neck.
  • Over eating or snacking the wrong foods in a rush. Or under eating and effectively “starving” becoming mal-nourished through bad eating habits.
  • No time or motivation to exercise. Can’t be bothered about much these days.
  • Body aches and pains, digestive issues and mid-life problems.
  • Sometimes just want to run away form it all and hide. Don’t want to face each day – fantasize about escaping the job, home, country etc.
  • Tired and exhausted when only half way through another demanding and stressful day – fall asleep at any opportunity but cant stay asleep.

We're not getting any younger – so doing all you can to ensure you maintain your mental and physical wellbeing, and enjoy health aging is a good start. Using the right skin care, getting a good hair cut and buying a new outfit with a great pair shoes will temporarily make you feel good. But what about the real you on the inside? Just how stressed are you and also what effect is it having on your appearance too? Nothing ages your mind and body faster than stress and can be a trigger for serious illness too.

A major contributing factor to feeling under par and exhausted with an over-reactive response to stress, is vitamin deficiency. This is particularly evident as we age. Your body becomes less efficient at extracting the nutrients you need to function at your optimum and feel in balance.

Add to this toxic mix, the stress of work and demands at home and you’ll soon feel distressed, sleepless and exhausted and on the road to feeling down and de-motivated, if not depressed.
