Frequently Asked Questions
What is a normal stress level?
Some stress is healthy and motivating — it's known as eustress. Scores of 25–50 are typical for working adults with normal life responsibilities. Chronic scores above 60 are where physical and mental health consequences begin to compound.
How does chronic stress affect physical health?
Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which disrupts sleep, suppresses immune function, increases inflammation, raises blood pressure, and promotes fat storage — particularly visceral fat. Over years, this contributes to cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, and accelerated ageing.
What is the difference between stress and anxiety?
Stress is a response to an identifiable external pressure — work, relationships, money. When the stressor is removed, the stress typically resolves. Anxiety persists without a clear cause and involves a more internal, ongoing sense of threat. Both benefit from professional support if severe.
What are the fastest ways to reduce stress?
Breathing exercises (4-7-8 breathing or box breathing) can reduce cortisol within minutes. Physical movement is the most powerful acute stress reliever. Adequate sleep and strong social connection are the most effective long-term interventions. Reducing caffeine and alcohol also helps significantly.
