Stressing About Stress: Wire Your Brain For Happiness

Let’s boost our moods by understanding what stress is and how it impacts our thinking and relationships. When we encounter a stressor, our brain and body respond by triggering a series of chemical reactions that prepare us to engage in a “fight or flight response” to the stressor. This activates the amygdala, or “fear center” of the brain, and causes a series of events. The good news is that we can change our feelings of being overwhelmed, anxious, and fearful. Let’s learn the tools to relax and boost our moods.
