YOGYAKARTA There are so many stressful events. Starting from road congestion, work piling up, to a lot of homework. In understanding stress, it is often misunderstood. Because understanding of stress is often simplified, follow a complete explanation of the hormosis process of stress needed in certain measurements to be mentally and physically strong.
Hormosis is a biological process that explains why stress produces certain effects other than stress itself. The effects of hormosis are also explained in physical conditions, such as exercise and nutrition. If exercise and nutrition are obtained in the right dose, it will always make the body healthy. But if it is lacking and mostly, it will have a bad effect on the body.
Stress effects have a bad reputation, when stereotypes are about depressed and unpleasant. Though hormosis needs to be understood as a process to forge themselves, recognized since the 16th century by Swiss scientist Paracelsus. In the experiment, certain doses will be toxic. As is good, including drinking mineral water, exercise, nutrition, and healthy food. At the right dose, they will produce health, but advantages and disadvantages can be unhealthy.
Paracelsus conducts experiments in measuring chemical substances, in which chemical stress has the same effect on physical and emotional stress. Hormesis, technically reported by Psychology Today, Friday, December 2, refers to a general biochemical pattern in which a substance exhibits beneficial effects on certain doses. But negative effects on higher or lower doses. In the context of stress, there is a biological adaptation process. At the right dose, stress induces cell changes, hormones, neurons, organs, and neural functions to produce improved skills, strengths, health, immunity, or cognition.
Examples of hormosis, among others, explain why sunlight can make your skin brown or cause skin cancer. Another example, hunger can be deadly while intermittents produce many health benefits. In addition, it also explains why work contributes to fatigue but also a source of meaning and self-appreciation that lasts a long time.
That is, the hormesis process shows why we all need stress. Life depends on it, because without the effects of stress, your mind and immune system will wither. Even monotonous relations will also be stale and boring.
According to Thomas Rutledge, Ph.D., professors at the Department of Psychiatry UC San Diego, a skilled, strong, fit, and prosperous person in the world do not gain their abilities overnight or simply because of their congenital talents. Most of them get it from the hormosis process. This means, dealing with stress in a systematic way, gradually can produce extraordinary results.
