| Stress: Stress is unavoidable in todays society, and it seems to be
getting worse. As humans we havent had much time for our bodies to evolve the
adaptive capabilities to deal with stress. It is therefore necessary to support the body
and provide it with tools to withstand stress. The most rational thing is to avoid stress,
but that is difficult. Stress is a huge initiator of disease in our body. We must first
admit that were experiencing stress and find rational ways to resolve or deal with
it. Look at every factor of your life, write down all of the areas in your life which
causes stress and those that do not. Look at ways of improving or asking for help where
needed.
