Your taxi is taking forever to come and you are afraid of missing your train; you are driving and you almost have an accident; you are about to take an exam... How does your body react to random stress?

• You begin to feel intense emotions such as fear, anxiety or anger.
• In the first few seconds, your heart beats faster, your blood pressure drops, your muscle tone decreases.
  
• Next, your blood pressure rises, your muscles tense up, your breathing accelerates. Your blood circulates faster in order to bring more oxygen to your muscles and brain (which, among other things, has the effect of increasing your alertness and memory). At the same time, saliva secretion decreases and sweating increases.

Adrenalin is largely responsible for these reactions. The greater the stress, the more intensely the body responds. However, each individual's capacity to react is different.

It is better to calmly deal with the occasional stressful moment, and thus react quickly and efficiently without expending too much energy. It is important to recognize that an accumulation of “minor” stress can be detrimental to your health in the long run.
