30 Photos That Can Raise Your Pulse in a blink

A part of the stress response changes cause the heart to beat stronger in order to pump blood to the various parts of the body required for emergency readiness. When stress responses occur infrequently, the body can recover relatively quickly from the physiological, psychological, and emotional changes the stress response brings about. When stress responses occur too frequently and/or dramatically, however, the body has a more difficult time recovering, which can result in the body remaining in a semi hyperstimulated state, since stress hormones are stimulants. A body that becomes stress-response hyperstimulated can exhibit similar sensations and symptoms to that of an active stress response. Feeling that your heart is pounding unusually hard in your chest is an example of the types of symptoms you can experience when the body becomes overly stressed.
