Stress Mastery
Stress is a normal part of life. The body's stress responses are your first line of defense in life-threatening situations. However, while stress is a normal part of life, prolonged stress is another story.
Persistent reactions to stress can lead to:
- Health conditions such as high blood pressure
- Suppression of the immune system
- Negative impact on school or work performance
This section is intentionally called stress mastery, not stress management. Management implies "to manage or direct with a degree of skill." When it comes to stress and your responses to it, you want to do more than this, you want to learn how to control your reactions so stress doesn't have the same impact.
Learning to master your stress responses is a life's work. Begin, or continue, this journey with awareness and intention.
