With all of the problems and pressures that face us today it is important for us to know ourselves and understand how our body responds to every day situations. How do you feel when you face changes and various pressures?

There is positive stress and negative stress. It is in the way one responds to a situation. A single event can give a positive stress to one person, and a negative stress to another. Stress can be good, or it can be fatal. It’s all up to your perception of the particular situation. It doesn’t matter whether a situation is pleasant or unpleasant. Any situation can lead to stress--too much to do, conflicts, disappointments, criticism, even compliments. These events, however, are not stress; they are stressors.
