Stress isn’t just something you feel — it’s also a set of very specific reactions in your body.

Your heart, your breathing, your muscles, your energy, and even your focus all change depending on what you’re going through.

In this lesson, you’ll discover how your body moves through three stages — alarm, resistance, and exhaustion — and how each one creates different sensations in your body and your heart.

Understanding these changes will help you notice more easily what your body is trying to tell you.
