It's important for individuals to manage their daily stress, as persistent and chronic stress can have marked effects on the brain, hampering the growth of new nerve cells, shrinking key memory processing areas, and increasing an individual's risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's disease. But individuals can use stress management tools to help deal with anxiety, stress, and minimize harmful effects on the brain. One way to quiet the stress response is to breathe deeply. Exhaling for longer than an inhale is a way of activating the parasympathetic nervous system, the portion of the nervous system responsible for relaxation and rest. It also helps to schedule daily relaxation activities like taking walks, having soothing baths, or meditating. Individuals should make time for fun activities they enjoy and make sure to have a sense of humor in their day-to-day life.
