Stress Mitigation Strategies

Meaning

Stress mitigation strategies are a comprehensive set of behavioral, nutritional, and pharmacological interventions specifically designed to dampen the intensity and duration of the physiological stress response, primarily by supporting the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis. These protocols aim to restore a healthy adrenal rhythm and enhance systemic resilience against chronic cortisol and catecholamine excess. Effective strategies include targeted adaptogenic supplementation, mindful movement practices, and sophisticated sleep hygiene protocols. Implementing these is vital for preventing stress-induced hormonal dysregulation and its negative downstream effects on metabolism and immunity.
