Pain and stress are two such unexplained and rather complex phenomena that have engulfed our daily lives.

Together, they are the underlying reasons for a multitude of health issues that include depression, high blood pressure, anxiety, and Type 2 diabetes to name a few.

At times, pain is a trigger for stress and vice versa, moving from people to people.

More than 25 years of medical research suggest how a combination of social and emotional factors, alongside physical reasons, leads to pain and undue stress. In other words, events of chronic pain are directly linked to chronic stress.

Given the nature of our daily life and diet, resorting to over-the-counter or prescription drugs is quite a common habit to keep pain and stress under control. Although drugs like Ativan, Xanax, Valium, and Klonopin promote good results, they are detrimental to one's health in the long run.

Instead, one should embrace natural ways to deal with stress and keep pain in check for good. Compared to drugs, they are inexpensive, safe, highly effective, and come with little to almost no side effects.

According to The University of New Hampshire Health Services, all-natural ways of healing carry strong historical, cultural, and anecdotal evidence. In essence, it has trickled down the generations surpassing the Celts, Romans, Greek, Arabs, Indians, and Chinese.

Once you welcome natural remedies to your life, they become a permanent part of your pain and stress management efforts. In due time, they bring effective and life long results, like nothing else in comparison.

Lavender

Do you complain of regular back and shoulder pain after long hours at work?

While one may link it to an underlying injury or muscle tension, in the majority of cases it is linked to stress.

Lavender is a great natural antidote to stress and anxiety. Consider adding a few drops of lavender oil to your bath to feel the difference.

Daily exercise

We can't possibly stress the importance of exercise for a whole lot of reasons.

All you need to do is to breathe deep enough to help your abdomen expand and then back up with each breath resembling a contracting balloon.

Start by inhaling four times, and then hold and exhale for an equal number of times, followed by some hold time. Start slow and repeat the same for at least 9-10 cycles.

Terpenes

Terpenes

If you struggle with sleep disorders and prolonged feelings of tiredness, it probably has to do a lot with your CB2 receptors. They exist throughout your body and are responsible for a handful of functions within the peripheral and central nervous systems.

Terpenes, which are chemicals imparting smell to fruits and plants work great to activate the CB2 receptors. In turn, they promote deep sleep, storing gut digestion, the calmness of mind, and also boost immunity and anti-inflammatory functions.

A great proprietary formula consisting of terpenes can be found in Ultra Hemp CB2 oil, along with a combination of omega 3, 6, 9, and other fat-soluble vitamins. CB2 oil for anxiety can be purchased easily online.
