Our brains are constantly making decisions, whether we\u2019re handling conflict at work or getting groceries. Although we can\u2019t control when or why stressful situations happen, we can control how we handle the stress that comes with them.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Stress Affects Your Brain<\/span><\/h2>\n

Under stress, parts of our brain don\u2019t have the energy to perform their tasks. Our brain allocates more energy to basic survival functions rather than higher-order tasks, such as thinking and storing memories, to protect us.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chronic stress can eventually lead to a build-up of cortisol. High levels of cortisol create disruptions in your brain\u2019s regulatory functions. Chronic stress has been <\/span>linked to<\/span><\/a> decreased sociability, long-term memory impairment and even brain size reduction. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Get Some S<\/span>leep<\/span><\/h3>\n\"Two\n

Sleep plays a crucial role in every process and function our body carries out. Without adequate sleep<\/a>, our bodies fail to recover, which can be detrimental to our overall well-being.

Exercise <\/span>\"man<\/span><\/h3>\n

Regular exercise improves your overall health, sense of well-being and stress levels. Raising your heart rate increases the production of endorphins, which are the feel-good neurotransmitters that cause a runner\u2019s high.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For the average adult, <\/span>the CDC recommends<\/span><\/a> 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week. Walking, running, strength training and cardio are all effective ways to reach this weekly goal. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n
