Headaches Tension headaches where there is a feeling of tightness associated with the pain indicate stress buildup. Some headaches are related to indigestion which is caused by malfunctioning of the stomach and small intestine caused by the stress reaction. Sleeping Problems When there is trouble getting to step and staying asleep, this indicates a high level of adrenaline in the blood. Dreaming is often vivid and continuous. Fatigue Feelings Tiredness after a long strenuous day and tiredness associated with frustration actually feel the same way. When a person wakes up tired after a good night's rest, this is a good sign that the blood still contains waste products. Kidney and Bladder Problems When a person is very thirsty and needs to drink liquids quite often, this is a good sign that the kidneys are working overtime to clean the blood stream. Stress triggers mouth dryness because it retards the flow of saliva. Colon Difficulties Stressful experiences increases colon activity leading to rapid transit. Loose and watery stools result. Gas production and noisy intestines are common. While there are other causes of this reaction, the frequency of it signals stress build up. Irritability and Aggression When tongue control is difficult and quick outbursts occur on a regular basis, this is a sign that the noradrenaline level in the blood is too high. High Blood Pressure The stress reaction raises the blood pressure. Too many stressful experiences can keep it high. This is called the silent killer because the person gets no signal that it is there. For people in stressful occupations blood pressure checks are a must. Elevated Blood Sugar The stress reaction raises the blood sugar level. To avoid diabetic tendencies blood sugar should be checked. There is a simple device available. |
