Life Changes & Stress Test
July 27, 2007
I often tell my clients (and pupils) that it’s not a matter of ‘getting
rid’ of your stress. Because life is stress.
Once that is accepted and understood, then you can look at life (stress)
more objectively. There are two types of stress; good stress, Eustress and
bad stress, Distress. Remember, life without stress is a vegetative state.
And that would not be a life worth living.
The goal is to develop positive ways of coping with stress. Meditation,
hobbies, exercise, yoga, massage are great ways to dissipate and reduce the
effects of stress on your body.
The negative effects of stress include lowered immunity from insomnia,
anxiety, depression, anger, weight-gain, etc. Lowered immunity has been
scientifically proven to create an open door for disease such as heart
disease, cancer, colds, among many others.
So, the first question is “how is your stress level?”
