How anxiety and stress can impact your life.

Anxiety is a natural defence mechanism of the body against perceived danger. It has been present in humans since ancient times when our ancestors were constantly under threat from large predatory animals. However, in modern times, the threat of danger is not as prevalent, yet our nervous system can become oversensitive and react to situations that pose no real threat to us at all.

Stress occurs when you are constantly exposed to external or internal pressure for a prolonged period of time. This prevents your body from getting the necessary rest and recovery time, leading to wear and tear on both your physical and mental health.

Some common signs of anxiety and stress in your life:

  • Worrying about the future
