Digital Stress Mitigation

Meaning

Digital Stress Mitigation refers to the clinical and behavioral strategies employed to lessen the physiological and psychological burden that is induced by constant interaction with digital technology and the associated information overload. This specific type of chronic, low-grade stress can lead to sustained activation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis, resulting in cortisol dysregulation and subsequent systemic hormonal imbalances. Effective mitigation is essential for protecting the integrity of the neuroendocrine system and preserving mental clarity, emotional balance, and physical well-being.
