It can be said that modern day life is ever increasing in its demands and the stress associated with day to day living.
A natural life is not without stress, to be alive is to constantly adapt to our environment, growing and ideally reaching our full potential and leaving it a better place for our being here.
Quite simply a completely stress free life does not exist. What does exist is the varying levels of stress we experience and how our body is equipped to deal with it.
The good news is that our body has an incredibly complex and capable system of mechanisms which enable us to adapt to environmental stress and maintain our ability to function at our optimal level.
We must be good to ourselves and support this innate ability so as not to overwhelm it. In essence this may be seen as one of the key principles to maintaining our health.
For should this mechanism be overwhelmed, the body can no longer maintain balance and we may then be predisposed to dysfunction and subsequently disease.
So how can we support our body with adapting to the stressors of daily life? Well you may have heard it all before but just to recap some of the key healthy lifestyle habits to enjoy. Feed and nourish ourselves with quality food, relationships and knowledge, keep mobile with regular suitable exercise, hydrate well with clean water, Rest well, minimise exposure to toxins or pathogens and ensure our body is eliminating well.
While that is a very succinct summary and by no means exhaustive, being mindful of these things lends great support to our body’s ability to adapt and maintain health.
The humble cup of tea is a great addition to a healthy lifestyle. It forms part of all our traditions and its value should not be understated. It can be said that for most of the challenges we face from nature there is a plant who has mastered this challenge and is able the share this knowledge with us.
