STRESSORS in life accumulate, financial worries, a difficult boss, being overworked, arguing with loved ones, ill health etc. Grappling with stress causes physiological reactions to the body. In the short term, stress can produce productive, adaptive coping strategies in response to the stressor. In the long term however, the stress response can be more damaging than the stressor itself. When current level of stress becomes overwhelming, it can significantly impact an individual’s life in a negative way.
