GETTING A HANDLE ON STRESS
To get a handle on stress, we have to begin with the premis that: "There's nothing wrong with stress."
Our bodies have many ways of telling us when there’s too little or too much going on in our lives. Most people though, choose to ignore what their bodies are telling them.
Is stress bad? Not necessarily. Stress can be a good thing. It helps us feel alive and productive, and it certainly can make life interesting. What we want to avoid is bad stress – or in other words, finding ourselves in distress.
We can be in “distress” with either too little or too much stress in our lives.
