Question

Do you feel that people usually reframe situations in ways that reduce stress? why or w not?

Answer 1

Ans) Using reframing techniques can actually change your physical responses to stress because your body's stress response is triggered by perceived stress, more often than actual events.

If perceived that you are threatened — physically or psychologically — by a situation, your fight-or-flight response will kick in.

- Your stress response can be triggered by events ranging from annoying to frightening and can remain triggered long after the triggering event has passed, especially if you're not practicing relaxation techniques. Reframing techniques are a way of minimizing the stressors you perceive in your life, thus easing the process of relaxation.
