Physical

Physical reactions in our bodies influence the way we perform and respond to situations. When we are stressed, adrenaline is released, muscles tense, breathing speeds up and heart rate increases, sometimes without us even realising.

If you become more aware of your physical reactions to challenging situations, you can test whether your reactions are reasonable in the circumstances and use these tools for learning how to adjust them if needed.
