NEGATIVE STRESS
It is a contributory factor in minor conditions, such as headaches, digestive problems, skin complaints, insomnia and ulcers.
Excessive, prolonged and unrelieved stress can have a harmful effect on mental, physical and spiritual health.
POSITIVE STRESS
Stress can also have a positive effect, spurring motivation and awareness, providing the stimulation to cope with challenging situations.
Stress also provides the sense of urgency and alertness needed for survival when confronting threatening situations.
THE INDIVIDUAL
Everyone is different, with unique perceptions of, and reactions to, events. There is no single level of stress that is optimal for all people. Some are more sensitive owing to experiences in childhood, the influence of teachers, parents and religion etc.
RECOGNISE THE PROBLEM
The most important point is to recognise the source of the stress.
This is not an admission of weakness or inability to cope! It is a way to identify the problem and plan measures to overcome it.
