Stress is ordinary biological reaction to adversity. Author Jan Bruce of Forbes magazine states that managing stress can be regulated by “changing our thinking styles about these priorities and issues gives us coping power over them” (Bruce, "The Real Reason You Are Stressed."). The knowledge and development of self-awareness and coping skills can help take back control of a student’s perceived stress from the commitment and expectations of college. The three parts that control stress response include “your hypothalamus and your pituitary (both in your brain), and your adrenal glands by your kidneys.” Each part creates a type of hormone and sends that signal to each other releasing factors through the blood stream producing a stress hormone called cortisol. Too much of cortisol makes the brain more susceptible to brain damage. Regulated stress techniques can improve “the value of a person’s state of thought — whether they practice gratitude, forgiveness, love and connection — as a key component of health and well-being (Peschke).” Rather than stress being bad for you, it is the belief that stress is bad for you. Experiencing stress can improve health and vitality which helps facilitates learning and growth amongst individuals, and enhance performance and productivity. The effects of stress are positive and should be applied
