In his recent book titled Anti-stressDr. Carlos Jaramillo explains, among other things, the formula to confront one of the most complex evils of the modern world: stress.
“We see mental illnesses as if they were something very serious, which cannot be talked about. That is leading to “We are completely losing control as this comes shooting like a rocket,” stated Dr. Carlos Jaramillo.
Likewise, he also talked about everyday stress. “The day to day thing, what is happening is the lack of connection that we have with our mind, with our decisions, with our emotions, with our beliefs, with what we expose ourselves to, with the lack of sleep, with the overexposure to so many things. That which is becoming a constant burden in our lives”he commented.
For Jaramillo, stress is necessary for human life, as it allows “activate adaptive response mechanisms in the body. Antioxidants work through a stress coupling process. Exercise works on the body and has all the benefits, because I am giving it a little more of a stressful stimulus, which is allowing me to bring about adaptation mechanisms.”
As for the symptoms of stress, it can be translated into “visual problems, bruxism, back pain, neck pain, jaw pain, jaw dislocation, spasms, tics, cramps, overweight, tachycardia, heart attacks, thyroid problems, gastritis, reflux and constipation,” Jaramillo stressed.
This symptomatology results because “stress has a response, It stimulates the part of the neurological system that interconnects the entire body with each other. That’s why the answers are so varied, from something as everyday as having a headache to something as difficult as having cancer or having an autoimmune disease,” the writer also pointed out.
Jaramillo concluded that his book is an open letter so that all people can learn more about stress and give it the importance it deserves.
“I want you to realize that this is real, I want to explain to you what the mechanisms are that lead to this. But I also want to show you that there is a way. But, at the end of the day, the only one who designs the path is you,” said the doctor about his book.
