"We're listening to you" - how can we be more resistant to stress?

Stress has become our constant companion in life. It is present to such an extent that we hardly notice that our mind and body are in a constant state of tension.

• How did we come to accept such a state – which our body would normally only be in if our life was threatened – as normal?
• What are the consequences of exposure to chronic stress on our mental health? Are some people, due to their personality type, more prone to stress?
• How can we develop psychological resilience, balance emotions, and effectively manage the stresses we are exposed to?

These are some of the questions we seek answers to in the show "We Listen to You" on Vijesti television, with the help of psychotherapist Darija Petović Bambur. We asked cardiologist Igor Dragović how stress affects our body and how we can mitigate its harmful effects.

The show "We're Listening to You" airs on Wednesdays at 21 p.m. village.
