Is Crying Good For Stress Relief?

The effects of stress on our physical health are indisputable.

Science has found a concrete link between stress levels and related diseases, such as:

• Asthma
• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Depression and Anxiety
• Gastrointestinal problems
• Headaches
• Fibromyalgia
• Increased risk of Cancer
  
  As this video shows, crying is an emotional response to an intense event.
   So whenever you’re extremely stressed caused by extreme joy or extreme sadness, we cry.
  
  When we cry, we shed tears, and the hormone adrenocorticotropic (ACTH) is released into the bloodstream.
   This helps to relieve stress, but crying over an extended period of time can be detrimental to your health.
   You may have found that once in a while, after having “a good cry”, you feel calmer and more relaxed.
  
  While crying does help to relieve stress, it’s not the best way to relieve stress and can actually cause physical harm to your health over the long term.
  
  Neurology based techniques such as FasterEFT are very effective in relieving the root causes of stress, not just the symptoms.
