Our life gets faster every day. Every day we want to be better and achieve better results. For one person the goal is money, for another the happiness of loved ones is the goal. But what happens when we fail to achieve the expected results? What if suddenly the whole world is against us? That's when nerves and stress come in.
I would like to invite you to watch a short film about the impact of stress on our body. After that please give me your feedback in comments bellow.

- What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
- Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
- Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?

2. I try to live in peace but stress is inevitable part of everyone's life. It's important how you manage it.
3/4. I believe stress can be helpful tool sometimes if managed properly. It can give you motivation when you are facing some deadlines etc. but when it's present for too long then you just need to find your own way to deal with it. You need to find some activity that will allow you to either transform this stress into something positive ( for me it's working out ) or something that will calm you down and will let you forget about the situation for a moment.
After watching this movie, I will take stress more seriously and try to reduce it.
To reduce the amount of stress in my life I would have to give up some of my duties.
Yes, I did. Of course, I knew about bad influence of stress on our body, but not in such details. I am very stressed person and I can feel and notice all of symptoms showed in movie after stressful situation.
2. What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
My life is full of stress, all the time I have to work on myself and try to stay calm. I hope that after studies, exams and graduation I won't overstrung anymore.
3. Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
I tried many ways of reducing stress, practice joga, meditation, sport, running, relaxation techniques, breathing or eating :p Nothing helps if we won't change our way of thinking, accept life and deal with situations.
4. Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
Sometimes stress may be also a helpful factor. Stress works differently on different people. I believe that jitters in small doses motivates us. Under small stress, some people can clear their mind and be able to stay focus, others become stupefaction and lose their head.
I always try to eliminate stress from my life, although the pace of life is often so frantic it's impossible to get rid of all of negative tensions.
I guess one of the best what you can do to reduce the stress level is organizing your day, eat healthy and improve your sleep quality.
I think that short-term stress may be helpful, it makes you think more efficiently and improves focus on a current task.
I knew about some of the things shown in this videos but it was still entertaining to watch and I learned a few more too. When it comes to my life I would say its really stressful and even though in some situations its not that bad but I still tend to exaggerate the problems. I think the best way to reduce stress for me is to have a daily plan and plan every hour of this time so I won't have time to just sit and do nothing about it. When we start doing something about things we need to do and that are stressful to us, the stress is starting to fade slowly as u begin to complete the tasks. In some situations stress is caused by emotional problems or feeling lonely, then I try to talk to someone about it and it helps sometimes. I think stress is helpfull because it makes us work harder but it can be really drestructive too and I have seen it recently.
Suggest something to change.. unfortunately I have no idea how I can reduce stress level more. Yes, in my life quite a lot stress, but nothing of this "stress sources" things I can't got rid.
I believe that everyone should be able to act in a stressful situation, without succumbing to their weaknesses. Because without stress in this life it seems impossible.
Stress can be useful for a certain task, but in the long run I do not think it is worth it (the damage caused by stress often does not correspond to the profit from the task).
2. I think that there is a lot of stress in my life, I am exposed to it almost every day. I'm a fearful person and an introvert, so it's hard for me to find myself in some life situations. I try to deal with stress as much as possible, but I don't always manage to do it because emotions take over me. Sometimes it annoys me that I am stressed with even the smallest trifles, and after they finish, it turns out that it wasn't all that bad.
3. I think that in my case, the best way to deal with stress would be to increase self-denial and openness to others. It depends only on me, and until I overcome some barriers in my mind, stress will still accompany me in many situations.
4. I think that in some situations stress has helped me get out of them victoriously. Thanks to stress, a person works under pressure, but is more determined and focused to make everything work out best. Sometimes these feelings outweigh even fear, so stress can actually be helpful.
2. I don't stress too much despite of having lots of duties in work, school or at home. I try to have everything planned and stick to this. Even it doesn't happen I don't panic, trying to stay calm.
3,4. As I asnwered in question two I try to eliminate stress as much as I can. Obviously I happen to be stressed but I don't panic. I try to clear my mind and have everything under control.
2. I try to avoid stress so my life is mostly full of harmony and peace. Of course stress is inherent part of our life but I know what help me to beat stress. For me the best way is deep breathing and sport, because that solutions clear my mind and relax my muscles.
3. As I mentioned above exercises and deep breathing help me to reduce stress level. I think that reducing caffe can be beneficial, but I can't imagine my life without a cup of coffee in the morning. Moreover ilI recommend spending time with family and friends help to rid your mind od stress.
4. People said that stress is unhealthy, but in my opinion stress may be dangerous when it becomes to be chronic and we can't control it. Od you ask me I think that short-term stress has positive impact on our body, because it not only boots brain power but also adrenalise.
2. I think I have a pretty peacefull life as in without nothing major to worry about.
3. When I feel like am overloaded with work I like to take a break from everything. It is like a reset. That puts a clearer perspective. Chos is bad, so I try to have a plan and a backup plan.
4. Stress is useful as long it is "constructive". When it represents a motivation to solve a problem.
2. Unfortenatelly, I am kind of person who constantly stress and think about different things. I try to change my attitude, but sometimes it’s difficult. I try to do things regularly and not leave it on the last moment, as I don’t like the feeling of tension.
3. It really difficult to say, maybe I should try to use time as efficiently as it is possible, e.g. by getting rid of all social media. To be honest, I expected that this video will give some universal tips on how to deal with stress. :)
4. Not really. Of course, it’s a physiologic reaction of our organism as it was defined it the video, but I think it makes me more difficult to keep focus on sth and it rather decrease my productivity.
I am calm person, which deal with chronic stress. I try to live in peace and harmony. I know that short-term stress is positive and can be motivating. I use it. In stressful situation, I always think only about positives scenarios. I feel self-confident when I perform demanding tasks. I try to avoid extra pressure. My stress is mainly caused by work and study, which is why I plan carefully all my daily activities. I have to admit it works - I've never felt chronic stress.
As mentioned in the video, short-term stressful can be positive. It allows us to learn much quicker, make right decision, and works effective. I try to use it.
Recently, I noticed that I am partly addicted to adrenaline – I do sports, it is not of course extreme sports but I love to play important matches. When others stress out, then I am like a kid in a candy store.
1. I think that stress is an inseparable element of our lives and we simply will not avoid it. We can only minimize or mitigate the risk of occurrence. Our everyday life means that we are always stressed to a greater or lesser degree.
2. My life is a mix of all available feelings. However, I try to live in harmony and stress-free, if the situation allows, because I know that it leads to long-term life and there is less risk of illness.
3. Calm and substantive conversations, avoiding quarrels and alleviating crisis situations and a lot of sports activities - this is how I usually minimize the risk of stress.
4. I think yes, stress is sometimes useful in life. I believe that stress helps acquire certain qualities and skills, e.g. operating under time pressure. Besides, we always know a little something has never hurt anyone ;)
2. I try to lead a stress-free lifestyle and keep it to a minimum. We must remember that this is a natural part of our lives, thanks to which we appreciate peace more.
3. I try not to dramatize and calmly approach the problems I face. In addition, I relax very much while listening to music or doing my hobby's.
4. Yes, as I mentioned in answer to question number 2, stress allows me to appreciate a quiet moment more and introduces more energy to my life.
2. Whatever stressful happens, I try to remain calm. In most cases it’s just an irrational stress. Stress is just a part of our lives, but I’m trying to reduce it to the minimum.
3. The best idea is to always be confident and don’t overreact. Stress can be very helpful in some situations, but it can’t define our lives. It’s just important to remember that stress is only physical reaction and an outcome of different chemical reactions in our brains.
4. Yes, but only when you know how to control it. It increases our adrenaline levels, so it can be very helpful in some parts of our life. At the other hand, overdose of stress situations can really damage one’s health so it’s important to use it wisely.
2. I like having a lot of activities but my life is not full of stress. I try to plan everything.
3. I could try to plan my time better so I will not run all day
4. Yes, It can be helpful to mobilize during the day and not to linger.
I am trying to plan everything in my everyday routine but it seems that it could be difficulties in our life, so it leads to stress.
We can't control everything in this world so just stop be so nervous. I don't know how it could be helpful, maybe it could bring some extra feelings in your life.
Some people can deal with it better than the others but it doesn't mean that they are not exposed to it as well. Logically speaking, knowledge about physical aftermaths of stress should be common. But this assumption is unfortunately incorrect. Although every person have their experiences with stress situations not many of them are aware of actual consequences. Personally I recommend to spend more time in silence and calm environment. One of the biggest issue is living in constant rush. Forest walks, listening to music in domestic quiet, reading books on bench in park, they are all just some of solutions to slow things down in everyday life. There is no such a thing as unique advice for everyone. We can listen to advices of our friends or even doctors but every person should find something that works especially for them. After all, remember that stress is one of the reactions of our body (no matter if it's physical or psychical). It's natural to feel stressed sometimes but it's also important to know that this reaction is kind of a warning to us which we should not ignore. It can be useful in right doses.
I try to control my emotions and before I get nervous and worried, I think: is it really that bad? Will I be nervous about this tomorrow? And is it so important to be nervous about it?
On the other hand, stress can help. In stressful situations, our body and brain can do incredible things. In stressful situations I always make the best decisions!
2. Well, I try living a peaceful life and not worrying about small things and mostly I succeed at it but you know, there are times when everything just crumbles in your hands and that is when the challenge of keeping yourself sane begins.
3. I am that kind of man that is more likely to worry about everything but most of the time, as I mentioned before, I can control myself so I guess I have already changed something.
4. As the video mentioned, it can, but as it is with everything in this life, too much of anything is unhealthy.
2. My life is not really stressful. Just as everyone most likely, there are times when some stress generating events happen. That way you cannot forget the feeling of being stressed out.
3. There is not much I can change in my life to feel less stress, as there is not much of it. However, a good sleep, motivating yourself and encouraging yourself that there is nothing that can stop you is usually what helps me.
4. From time to time, yes. It helps you to focus and commit yourself to the task or event. People whose life pace is fast may suffer way more from stress, if they feel it constantly. Afterall it is deeply tiring for organism to deal with that.
I am trying to live life without stress and not bother of things that i dont have influence on. Also sometimes i try to meditate bu of course the stress is unseparateble part of modern world so it will always appear.
For sure eating and sleeping well can have an impact on our stress level. Also resting in free time and reading a book or making something different for pleasure can reduce our stress level i guess.
In specific situations for sure. For example before the exams usually i have a lot of stress and it helps me concentrate and remember better but in a short period of time. After working longer in that state i am always very tired.
I think it's good to be aware of what damage we can do to ourselves. I was half a year in my life where stress led to big changes in my body but I learned to control it.
2.What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
As I wrote above, I learned to manage stress, I know exactly when it occurs and how to quell it. However, I can't explain how someone else could do it.
3.Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
It's like fighting with yourself for you. You must learn to control your emotions, be able to lead to a situation where you feel nothing. Very important skill during dog training.
4.Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
When I try to lose weight or to motivate me to do something
discussed in the talk, it was interesting to learn more details.
2. Personally, I aim to live a peaceful life, however it is not always possible, especially until I graduate.
3. The first and the most important thing is physical activity and sport. It is proven, that even 1 hour per week of e.g. jogging can be beneficial for your health. It is beyond my comprehension that people still
can't find time or motivation to do 1 hour of jogging once a week. Other than physical activity I would suggest casual meeting with friends.
4. I think stress can be useful when there is a near deadline and you have to finish everything before that date. It is possible for me to accomplish much more under stress than when I am chilled out, given that the stressful periods are rare and they don't last too long.
1. I think nowadays it is very interesting topic to discuss. Firstly, the stress has a huge impact on our health, what is said in the video. It is important to talk about it and reduce it. Unfortunetly, I didnt learn anything new about this topic, propably because I was interested about the stress impact on people.
2. I am trying to live in peace and harmony, but it is not easy to life like that. First of all when you are working, studying and trying to develop your hobbies it is always something what you have to deal with it. The problems comes out in the most unexpected situations. To sum up I am trying to plan everything and life in harmony.
3. I wish I could sleep more time and have more time for some activities like ride a bike or go play some volleyball with friends. I am sure that, more physical activity will reduce my stress level. For example: do some exercices for 30 minutes every day probably can change it. I guess i will try it.
4. I think stress can be helpful. Every time it is near deadline and i feel 2 times more productive and motivated to done my work rather than i have plenty of time.
2. To be honest, I think I live in peace and harmony always trying to reduce any kind of unnecessary stress.
3. I think one of the things I could improve which in turn can help me cope with everyday stress is to make sure to sleep regularly.
4. Yes, stress in the right amount and in the right time can help me, for example - it allows me to focus solely on the problem, think more creatively, notice solutions that I have not noticed before.
2. I am trying to lead paceful and stress-free life. Whenever I face a serious problem which brings stress into my daily life, I aim to solve it as soon as possible, also at the same time I deal with the stress by going to the gym, talking to my close friends or (if it is possible) I get out of town for a day or two.
3. I should change my approach to the matters, I need to commute my emotionalism for more sensible and resonable approach. I should also work less, It’s very important to have some free time to relax and I very often take overtime so I don’t have spare time at all.
4. If it is eustress it can be very helpful in life. This kind of stress motivates you to do your job, for example if you are struggling with a task which require a lot of hard work and concetration, due to eustress you are able to meet tight deadlines.
I think that this topic is really important, especially nowadays when everybody lives in a rush and tries to accomplish everything as fast as possible.
2. What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
Right now I am at that very moment when I am aware that I sometimes should slow down a bit. I have a lot on my plate right now I keep forgetting the most basic stuff that I should do every day and I just keep focusing on my work. Of course, it was a bit of shitstorm during last month and it’s going to be much more stress free but still, I should focus more on myself rather than on someone’s business.
3. Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
As I said, I should focus more on myself and my hobbies/passions rather than on job or studies only.
4. Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
From time to time, stress can be motivating somehow, at least when it comes to me, but exaggerating to the other side is not something you desire.
Most part of stress of mine comes from myself. Its source is too much thoughts, stupid decisions, sloth and, mostly, not normalized sleeping.
To deal with stress in my life I should become more disciplined and motivated.
Stress is a common survivance mechanism. Nowadays it's less useful for human, but not always. Depends on the source of stress, is it dangerous, or just something that you deal with.
I think that topic is really important and everyone should know about it. We live in times when stress affects everyone so I'm glad you showed me that movie.
2.What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
I try my best to live in "peace and harmony" but it's not always possible due to times we live.
3.Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
I think i should sleep more and care more about my life than my job.
4.Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
It depends on the situation but overall i think it's not.

I think i should sleep more and care more about my life than my job.
4.Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
It depends on the situation but overall i think it's not.
2. My life is based on stress. I stress about my stress and in the harmony times I'm stressing about not being stressed (because something is wrong for sure), but for me pressure is very motivational. I've lernt how to deal with it and my negative thoughts usually don't have impact on my everyday existance anymore.
3. I think I should start meditating and improve my nutrition.
4. Yes of course! Stress can be very creative and help us to come up with some fresh ideas. When I'm under a big pressure I have the best ideas - simply because I have to do my task on time so there's no other option. You just can't break down mentally and focus on the target.
2. I try to live in harmony, but I'm a very stressful and nervous. I get irritated very easily but i try to avoid situations which can lead me to iritation.
3. I would suggest more sleeping and just try to stay away from situations you know will be very stressful or nervous for you.
4. It may be helpful, sometimes stress may be encouraging to achieve our goals and dreams. It's unfortunately unavoidable so you need to learn how to deal with it.
2. My life is full of stress. However, I am not trying to remedy this, I learned to live with it.
3. Maybe meditation etc. could help. Calming herbs are also available.
4. Sometimes for sure, but usually stress has a detrimental effect.
2. I try to live like this but it doesn't work out, life is not easy.
3. Probably letting go of my goals would reduce stress but I certainly wouldn't be happy.
4. Rather not helpful, but sometimes it can motivate you to act.
2. Most of the time I'm trying to live in peace and harmony, but it's not possible. Life is full of stressful situations and we can't avoid it.
3. First of all don't do things in last days, when I have much more time to do it. I like to do things last minute and causes stress. This is the most important thing I need to avoid.
4. Sometimes yes. Stress forces me to do something, where without it I wouldn't do it. But most of the time it's not good...
Maybe I can stop doing everything myself. I have people I can delegate part of my workload to, but I… kinda don’t want to? You know, if you want to do something good, you should do it yourself, this type of stuff.
I don’t think that stress can be helpful. If you’re calm and relaxed, you can achieve more.
2. Unfortunately, I know what damage to the body causes stress, because I have convinced myself more than once about it. I try to live calmly and avoid stressful situations, but this is not always possible.
3/4. Stress is present everywhere, at work in school and even while shopping. The main thing is to learn to live with him and control him. It is importent to don't worry about things that do not depend on us and cause us a lot of stress. It is very helpful to find our own stress reliever. For me, such medicine for stress relief is running. When I run I forget about all my troubles and relax myself.
Well, I've read article about stress so I knew most of things here
What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
I love harmony yin yang is my symbol. But it happens that I have stressed days. Usually I'm trying to avoid stressed situations.
Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
I would say it's necessary to think positively when you mind is full of happiness you feel less stress. I think even if you are in trouble you shouldn't panic and to be stressed.
Calm mind = healthy life
Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
From my view we need stress anyway, this is the genetic level inherent in us. Sometimes it helps to get faster decisions
2. My life is great and everyday i try to improve it. I think i rather have spiritual life instead of stress one.
3.I could start to meditate or woke up earlier to have some exercises before going to work.
4.No, Stress is really unhealthy and i dont find any good thing happening by it
This topic is very important to understand how your body works. I have read about it before, but not such detailed.
What is your life like? Are you trying to live in peace and harmony, or maybe your life is full of stress and negative tensions?
My life is very busy, there is a huge luck of time for a rest. Sometimes I feel just very tired. But mostly I like how my life is going. I am not concentrated on some bad things. I feel being in harmony with myself.
Suggest what you can change in your habits to reduce the stress level you are dealing with.
In my opinion, I need to improve my time management.
Do you think stress can be helpful in your life?
Of course. We need some stress for motivation and self development. We grow when going out of our zone of comfort and it is always a stress.
I like my life and always try get the best out of it. Although I am a rather busy person, I can find some time to catch my breath and think. Maybe i could sleep more to reduce my stress? But I dont like wasting time. :)
We should treat stress as a friend who motivates us to act, pushes us forward, sometimes annoys but does it for us. Under his influence we make decisions other than without him. We should not be afraid of him.
