“Just when I hear the word stress, I fall into stress.”

Everything is already pulling together with me and all systems switch to defense!

Each of us has words that are linked to negative events or emotions from our learning experience.

We don’t even have to be aware of this, our brain has memorized the situation or the word exactly and switches on the entire stress program with each new encounter with the stimulus.

So a word , the “trigger” ensures that we go into stress mode without external alarm signals or without experiencing a real threat, our “alarm bells” ring, the body reacts: blood pressure rises, breathing becomes faster and the muscles tense.

Is stress a stress word for you?
