If you like what you read here, there\u2019s plenty more to check out in the guide!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dissipate-your-stress-hormones\"><strong>Dissipate Your Stress Hormones<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors assert that <strong>to learn how to get rid of cortisol, we must mimic our body\u2019s natural response to stress. <\/strong>They elaborate that our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/stress-response-in-the-body\/\">stress response<\/a> cycle developed to help early humans survive, so to complete the stress cycle, we need to respond as early humans did.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When our ancient ancestors faced threats (stressors), they took action\u2014they ran, hunted, screamed, and gathered together. While the stressors modern humans face aren\u2019t the same, the way our body processes a neutralized threat is. The authors assert that based on these primal responses, <strong>there are three main ways we can dissipate our stress: by exerting energy, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-connect-with-people\/\">connecting with others<\/a>, and practicing wellness.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: In <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-willpower-instinct\"><em>The Willpower Instinct<\/em><\/a><em>, <\/em>Kelly McGonigal seconds the authors\u2019 assertion that we should relieve stress by mimicking our primal fight or flight response and doing things like exercising, connecting with others, and practicing wellness. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-willpower-instinct\/chapter-6#when-stress-makes-us-give-in\">she warns that the modern stressors we face often point us toward harmful stress relief activities<\/a> like smoking, drinking, gambling, eating, or shopping. While these may provide short-term stress relief, they don\u2019t actually eliminate the stress, just temporarily dull it. If you find yourself turning toward these activities when you\u2019re stressed, you\u2019re probably doing more harm than good and increasing your chances of burnout.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-technique-1-release-energy\">Technique #1: Release Energy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors explain that <strong>releasing energy, like engaging in physical activity, is the most effective way to dissipate stress hormones<\/strong>. This is because the most common response to stress for primal humans was to run, fight, or yell. They elaborate that 20 to 60 minutes of physical exertion (anything that gets your heart rate up) a day should be enough to release your stress. If you don\u2019t have time for this, you can alternatively release your energy by screaming into a pillow, having a good cry, or tensing and relaxing your muscles for a few minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-technique-2-connect-with-others\">Technique #2: Connect With Others<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Connecting with others and sharing affection is another effective way to dissipate stress<\/strong>. The authors say that interacting regularly with others is beneficial, but that interacting with people whom you love and trust is even better. They state that sharing a six-second kiss or hugging for 20 seconds is proven to lower your blood pressure and heart rate, improve your mood, and get rid of nasty stress hormones. Even cuddling with your pets or chatting with an acquaintance can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-technique-3-practice-wellness\">Technique #3: Practice Wellness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the authors explain that <strong>practicing wellness can help dissipate your stress hormones.<\/strong> They recommend practicing a one-minute breathing exercise\u2014breathe in slowly and deeply for five seconds, hold for five seconds, and then breathe out slowly and completely for ten seconds, repeating the process three times total. You should also try to regularly do things that make you happy, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/advantages-of-laughing\/\">laughing<\/a>, meditating, talking to friends, or expressing yourself creatively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can you get rid of cortisol?
