This is the place, where we will benefit from invaluable science-based knowledge and ancient, lost in modern times practices, in a hope to create a resilient, joyful, happy and a disease-free world.
WHAT IS HORMETIC STRESS
Hormetic stress is a biological phenomenon where low doses of a stressor have a stimulatory or beneficial effect, while higher doses might have inhibitory or toxic effects. The main principle of hormesis is the exposure to the ideal level of stressors, or to the right amount of stress where your body is challenged, but not overly fatigued. Hormetic stress triggers an adaptive response in the body that promotes strength, growth, and even improves your well-being.
