The steps of the general adaptation syndrome that I would experience are alarm reaction‚ which is the body’s initial response to any stressors. This reaction mobilizes or arouses the body in preparation to defend itself against a stressor.

and describe how you would treat these with hypnotherapy" When you sense danger—whether it’s real or imagined—the body ’s defences kick into high gear in a rapid‚ automatic process known as the “fight-or-flight-or-freeze” reaction‚ or the stress response. The nervous system responds to threat by releasing a flood of stress hormones‚ including adrenaline‚ adenosine triphosphate and cortisol. These hormones rouse the body for emergency action.

Schafer emphasises repeatedly in his definitions of stress that it is the person’s response to these demands‚ rather than the demands themselves which can influence stress. Stress depends very much on a person’s interpretation of an event (Burton‚ Weston & Kowalski‚ 2009)‚ and as a result of this interpretation‚ the adaptive responses that the body and mind activate to cope.
