“We must have a pie. Stress cannot exist in the presence of a pie.”
David Mamet, Boston Marriage
You live under constant pressure. You deal with enormous amounts of stress: work issues, relationships, housing, money. Even a proper relaxation can stress someone out. These all result in health issues, thus causing more stress. Unfortunately, we only realize this when we are in a state of complete tranquility and calmness. At HEALBE Corp., we look forward to making a difference and helping you reduce your stress.
People have been using the word ‘stress’ for so long that we believe it is time to make things clear. Stress is your body’s reaction to something called a stressor which can be any internal (e.g. psychological) or external (e.g. environmental) condition. In humans, stress is usually associated with negative conditions that induce heart attacks, ulcers, or mental illnesses.
Stress is not always bad. There’s good stress and bad stress. The former is called eustress and the latter distress (both introduced by Hans Selye in 1946).
Eustress (or positive stress) appears when you experience positive emotions and mild stressors. This kind of stress mobilizes and activates your body to help you cope with the arising challenges: you become more alert, more attentive, focused, confident, and your memory gets better. This is your so-called ‘fight’ mode.
Distress, on the other hand, or negative stress (commonly known as stress) takes place when the stressors are too aggressive and/or too enduring. This causes your thinking processes to slow down and your sense of humor (if any) less acute. The longer the negative effect, the more chances of distress becoming chronic, thus causing strain in the heart and stomach.
• Heart acceleration — up to 90-100 bpm
• Insignificant arterial blood pressure build-up
• Flushed skin
• Increased depth of breathing
• Slight fever
There is no way you can turn the distress into eustress, but you definitely can control it.
Stress Level Screen (HEALBE App)
The HEALBE GoBe smart band estimates your stress level once an hour by checking your heart rate. Then, through the complex analysis of your sleep quality data and anthropometrical parameters (like weight, height, sex and age), it helps you track your stress level.
In the HEALBE app you will see an hourly diagram with your stress level for the last 24 hours. This diagram will have explained level titles and specifically marked sections with no data gathered
• 5—High Stress Level
• 4—Above Average Stress Level
• 3—Average Stress Level
• 2—Low Stress Level
• 1—No Stress
• 0—No Data
The HEALBE GoBe helps you understand the level of stress you are currently under and aids you in coping with that. The device is not able to tell whether you are experiencing eustress or distress, but you may be able to decipher between the two by familiarizing yourself with the symptoms of each. And if it happens to be distress? Well, there are lots of ways to manage your distress. Techniques range from breathing exercises, getting enough sleep and eating healthy, to having enough sex, traveling and visiting your psychiatrist–especially if your stress level stays at 4-5 for more than several days in a row. It hardly needs mentioning that alcohol is not good when it comes to coping with your high stress levels. It dehydrates the body and affects your sleep, eventually causing more stress of yours than before.
Smart band uses a unique FLOW technology to track your calorie intake, body hydration, sleep and stress level as well as pulse, steps, and distance. Order yours today!
