Q&A: Does being happy instead of sad relieve the bad effects of stress?

I always have read about how bad stress effects your heart, weight, anxietys and tons of other stuff. I used to feel such stress and really torment all the time for years and years. I’ve finally found some medicine that is helping though and I for once am happy. I am happy and proud of myself and the person I am. The thing I’ve noticed already is that my blood pressure is no longer high anymore. So can being less stressed and happy for once really push away the negatives stress brings like weight gain, high blood pressure and more?

The Mindbody prescription by John Sarno

It is true that controlling and limiting bad stress can bring about a positive life experience.
your body is directly affected by your mind.

Positivity breeds positivity and that is contagious. so pass it on.

Yes, it really can! Stress can cause soooo many things. If you find ways to get rid of stress, many things get better(: My dad went to the doctor a couple of years ago and he had the worse blood pressure. Now, he has found that exercising and stuff makes his stress go away and he’s never been better(: Basically all of his health problems dissapeared and he is now expected to live longer(: So yes, I do believe that being happy helps with a lot! Hope this helped

Mario – I went to the doctors about two months ago, the doctor took my blood pressure.
I was shocked, the reading was 195/110. My BP is normally 120/80.
The doctor told me is was due to stress & everything Ive been through in the last 10 years including the cancer I went through, bad marriage & son whose is always in trouble with the police.
Im am now on coversyl for high blood pressure due to stress.
A lot of stress problems are due to unhappiness or worry.
Thats when it becomes up to YOU to do something about it.
This medicine that your on helps but doesnt relieve the inner problem that is causing it..
Its sounds like your on the right track with these new meds & along with the happiness & less worry
will help you along the way I also have a few special people on this site that helps me through the rough times.
