How does your body deal with stress?

When was the last time you felt stressed? Maybe you gave a presentation at work, interviewed for a job, or avoided a near-collision on your morning commute. In stressful moments like these, your body reacts—your senses sharpen, your heart rate quickens, and your muscles tighten. Understanding those changes in your body is key to managing your stress response and maintaining your health.
