“Breathing is the thermometer of our emotions", emphasized the doctor in Clinical Psychology and Verbal Communication, Ana Maria Rossi, during the lecture given on the afternoon of Wednesday (November 9th), at the opening of the VII Health Week of the Judiciary of the State of Tocantins, which continues on Thursday, at the Court of Justice of the State of Tocantins (TJTO), with the theme: "Quality of Life in Focus”.
According to the lecturer, who spoke about "Stress Prevention and Improvement of Human Relations at Work", breathing is one of the ways to prevent stress, and it is one of the most positive ways to deal with emotions.
For the lecturer, stress is part of everyone's life, what needs to be done is to manage it. "We don't want to live without stress, this is a utopia. We want to live in harmony with stress, knowing how to manage it", she said, highlighting that, in order to live well, it is necessary to recognize that stress is inevitable and essential, believing in one's own competence, having the capacity to overcome and betting on the realization of dreams.
Concept, origin and symptoms
During the lecture, Ana Maria Rossi talked about the concept, origin, and consequences of stress, which can cause heart diseases (45%), cancer (35%), professional exhaustion (32%), and strokes (24%). She also addressed the benefits and costs of healthy stress and symptoms, which can be physical, emotional, and behavioral.
The lecturer, in the opportunity, called the attention of the participants, emphasizing that quality of life is a personal and non-transferable mission, and living well depends only on each one.
