4.  Our increasingly busy lives cause our minds a lot
of stress.
 Stress is mental tension caused by demanding,
taxing or burdensome circumstances. Stress
doesn't just affect our mental state and mood; it
affects our physical health as well. When we are
very stressed, a hormone called cortisol is
released into our bloodstream, suppressing the
functioning of our immune, digestive and
reproductive systems. That is why it is so
important to practice stress management in
order to keep our minds and bodies healthy.

5.  Stress is body’s response to any physical or
emotional changes in life.
S = P > R
Stress occurs when the pressure is greater
than .the resource

6.  Many things can trigger the stress reaction,
including danger, threat, news, illness, as well
as significant changes in one's life such as
the death of a loved one.

7. Acute Stress
Of all forms of stress, acute stress is the most widely
experienced one, since it typically is caused by the daily
demands and pressures encountered by each one of us
Episodic Stress
Acute stress that is suffered too frequently is called episodic
stress. This type of stress is usually seen in people who
make self-inflicted, unrealistic or unreasonable demands
which get all clamoured up and bring too much stress in
their attempt to accomplish these goals.
Chronic Stress
Chronic stress is the total opposite of acute stress; it’s not
exciting and thrilling, but dangerous and unhealthy. Chronic
stress tears the life of a person apart his mind, body or
spirit.
