Of course, it is not possible or advisable to attribute all disease to stress.<\/p>\n<p>A person\u2019s health is, after all, the result of complex environmental, biological, behavioral and health care factors. In the promotion of personal health, stress deserves our attention in the treatment of disease and in the promotion of health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Is Stress?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stress can be defined as the experience of unpleasant over- or under- stimulation which actually or potentially leads to ill-health. No human being can function without stimulation and challenge. It is part of life and provides excitement, impetus and motivation, as well as, unfortunately distress and anxiety. As long as you feel in control, challenge can be invigorating. However, with some of the challenges you meet, the more disabling, feelings and actions associated with stress, can take hold.<\/p>\n<p>Stress is the result of a mismatch between the challenges you experience and your belief in your ability to cope. The challenges may come from sources external to you and may be the result of too much or too little pressure. Pressures may also come from within you, and be a product of your own value systems, needs and expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Do bear in mind that everyone has powerful personal histories which affect their attitudes and actions. Therefore, everyone perceives and interprets stress in different ways.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Natural Product<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/recommends\/MindSoothe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">MindSoothe<\/a>\u00a0is a specially formulated herbal remedy that has been successfully used in the treatment of Depression, Insomnia, OCD, SAD, Panic Disorder, and Anxiety.
