Very interesting new report on my DNA chart that read about how I have Higher Stress Reactivity. It all makes sense why I always feel anxious because it is connected to my DNA.

It all is very accurate and this is what it says:

  • You may feel overwhelmed or anxious more quickly in high-pressure situations.  

  • Minor problems can trigger strong emotional or physical responses, like a racing heart or tense muscles.  

  • Stressful events might linger in your mind, making it harder to unwind.  

  • You may notice changes in sleep, appetite, or mood during challenging periods. 

The report even gives helpful tips to try to help settle down the stress/ anxiety :

  • Use a calming breathing technique like box breathing when you feel tense. This method involves inhaling, holding, exhaling, and pausing—each for four seconds. It can help calm your nervous system and lower stress hormones. Practicing regularly makes it easier to manage strong emotional reactions.  

  • Stick to a consistent daily routine with clear start and stop times. Predictability helps reduce uncertainty, which often increases stress for reactive individuals. A stable schedule can give your brain a sense of control. Even small routines, like morning tea or evening walks, can create calm.  

  • Avoid multitasking and focus on one thing at a time. Trying to do many things at once can make your stress levels spike. Single-tasking helps you stay calm, focused, and feel more in control. It also reduces mental fatigue and mistakes.  

  • Keep caffeine and sugar intake moderate, especially during stressful days. These can heighten your body’s natural stress responses and make you feel jittery or anxious. People with high stress reactivity are more sensitive to such stimulants. Choose herbal teas or snacks with slow-releasing energy instead.  

  • Use journaling as a nightly wind-down habit. Writing about your day helps your mind process events and clear emotional clutter. It’s especially useful if your brain tends to replay stressful situations. Even five minutes can help you feel calmer before sleep. 

It does go on in detail of the different types of stress and other ways to help calm down the stress.

Just texting someone I know or now posting something on here seems to help calm down my pressure of stress/ anxiety.
