Not all stress is bad. While the physical and emotional tension it creates often comes from events that cause us to feel nervous, angry, or frustrated, positive situations and circumstances—like moving to a new home, starting a new job, or bringing a new baby into the world—create stress, too. Moderate levels of stress are healthy, and experts say short-term, manageable stress (known as “eustress,” a term coined by endocrinologist Hans Selye) helps to motivate us, increase our focus, and helps our bodies resist oxidative damage that contributes to aging and disease. But pervasive stress in our lives, also known as “distress,” can affect us adversely if we don’t find ways to manage it. In this article, I’ll discuss how the not-so-good kind of stress impacts our bodies and skin, and I’ll share how CBD (cannabidiol) products can help to minimize its negative effects.
