Anxiety And Nausea Nervous System
When we experience anxiety, our body goes into a fight or flight mode. Releasing stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones can affect the digestive system leading to symptoms like nausea, stomach pain or even vomiting. Anxiety-induced nausea is a real physiological response, so you’re not making it up during an anxiety episode. The sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system becomes overactive, impacting digestion and causing a pervasive sense of queasiness. During moments of anxiety, the Sy athetic Branch becomes overactive triggering a Cascade of psychological responses.As found on YouTube ᶦˢ ʸᵒᵘʳ ᵍᵘᵃʳᵈᶦᵃⁿ ᵃⁿᵍᵉˡ ᵗʳʸᶦⁿᵍ ᵗᵒ ˢᵉⁿᵈ ʸᵒᵘ ᵃⁿ ᵘʳᵍᵉⁿᵗ ᵐᵉˢˢᵃᵍᵉ? ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ꜱᴇᴇᴋ ɢᴜɪᴅᴀɴᴄᴇ ᴀɴᴅ ɪɴꜱɪɢʜᴛꜱ ɪɴᴛᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴀꜱᴛ, ᴘʀᴇꜱᴇɴᴛ, ᴀɴᴅ ꜰᴜᴛᴜʀᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ qᴜᴇꜱᴛɪᴏɴꜱ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ʟᴏᴠᴇ, ʀᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴꜱʜɪᴘꜱ, ᴏʀ ᴍᴏɴᴇʏ – ᴄᴏɴɴᴇᴄᴛ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴀɴɢᴇʟ ᴛᴏᴅᴀʏ https://aef5aa-t-ztics23v7-ljxbw4j.hop.clickbank.net/
I think it also helps me deal
with anger and frustration. And I just like it. I know a lot of people
exercise in the morning, but for me back when I worked full-time, I used to always go climbing or for a hike or run after work. That’s when I needed it the most. And it was hard for me to
get motivated in the morning but by afternoon, I was
looking forward to it. Now that I’m a full-time mom, I have to be more creative
in how I get my exercise in. I often just work out
in the yard, gardening, digging in the dirt, and
running around the yard with my wheelbarrow, or I’ll do some yoga on TV
or go for a walk with my kids or pull them behind my bike. Now that we’re stuck in our homes with the coronavirus pandemic, I’m doing more inside workouts. I like the seven-minute
workouts on my phone or The Fitness Marshall on YouTube. Number four is nature time. This takes me back to another aspect of my mental health routine
that is important to me. Outside time. I need nature. I need to see the sky
and soak in some sun. I’m fortunate to live
in a beautiful place. And I take advantage of
that by getting outside. There is some research showing
that sunshine nature and being outside change our physiology. It slows our heart rate and decreases the stress
chemicals and stuff. But regardless of the research, I can just feel the difference for me. If you can’t get outside,
open your windows, and sit on your porch. Or if you can’t do any of that then you can spend some time looking at beautiful landscape
photography or a nature film. Your brain can bring to mind the feelings of nature just by imagining it. Number five is my evening routine. My evening routine looks
like getting my kids to bed and then taking some
quiet time for myself. I usually take a hot bath and read a book or an archeology journal. I’m kinda nerdy, but that’s what I like. Even though I have very few hours to work on my passion project, these videos, I don’t usually work in the evenings, because it would just
stress me out a little and I need the downtime to stay healthy. So then before bed, I write in my journal, I often take the time
to write about my wins and accomplishments of the day
so that I can remember them because it’s my natural habit to dwell on my mistakes and shortcomings. So I write about my wins
and then I pray a prayer of gratitude and talk with my
heavenly father about my day. Again, gratitude practice
is an essential habit of mental health, and it’s been shown to be an effective
treatment for depression. So you can pray about it like me, express gratitude as a family,
which we do at dinner time, or write about it, whatever works for you. And then I go to bed. I try not to spend too much
time looking at screens before bed, but if I do, I
choose some calming documentary or a mudlarking channel
like Nikola Whites. If you don’t know what mudlarking is, it’s just finding
historical bits of treasures on themes in London. Anyway, I find it relaxing. I encourage people not to be on TV because it’s just not
super great for your brain. But if you do choose a
short and calming show. Lastly, other self-care. For me, that includes scheduling
and some time for my hobby. I have tons of hobbies, but
because I’m so busy with kids I don’t have
time to do most of them I make sure to carve
out about two hours a week to do at least one of them. Right now that’s metal detecting which is something fun
and relaxing for me. I put it on the calendar so
that I make sure it happens. I also take the Sabbath
off, no work, no housework. I don’t check my work email. I let my brain completely
focus on other things. Mostly my family, which
is also exhausting, but it’s a day that is
different from the others. And I make sure to have
social time as well. Having social interactions
is essential for mental health. Our brains are inherently social. We are social creatures. So right now this is going
to be an extra challenge with the Coronavirus. I’m taking the time to
call up old friends. I have some groups I’m
hanging out with on Zoom and when we’re not on lockdown I meet up with friends
to let the kids play or to go out to lunch or whatever. So there you have it. My daily routine to
maintain mental health. I have a careful morning routine. I make sure to get enough sleep. I get dressed every day. I exercise and get some outside time, I carve out time to relax each
evening, practice gratitude, and acknowledge my successes of the day. And once a week, I make sure to get out and do something just
for me, stress, anxiety, and social isolation can
all contribute to depression but you can prevent depression
during stressful times like the pandemic and social distancing by using daily habits that
promote mental health. Depression is treatable and there are some simple
things you can do every day to prevent depression and
stay mentally healthy. I hope you can find some things from this list that help you figure out a way to maintain your mental health. Today, this week, and
during the crazy pandemic that we’re going through. And remember, you’re braver than you know and stronger than you think. Thanks for watching and take care. If you enjoyed this video and would like to learn more
