Stress discussion
I need help with a Biology question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.
Begin by learning more about the possible benefits of stress
- View this TED talk on “How To Make Stress Your Friend“
For this discussion:
- According to Kelly McGonigal, what can you consciously do during stressful events, and what is the benefit of this behavior?
- In this week’s module you learned about the stress hormone cortisol. But what is the other stress hormone mentioned in this video? What effect does this other stress hormone have on the (1) immune system; (2) blood vessels; (3) heart? How can we enhance the secretion of this hormone?
- At the end of your post, include a provocative, open ended question to which your classmates can respond.
