What is Stress?
Stress is the effect of any external-physical or mental pressures on your physical and emotional
wellness.
Causes of Stress
The main causes of stress are anxiety and tension, which may be through different events or
conditions such as:
- Your normal health and emotional conditions, working conditions, friends and family,
loneliness, illness.
- Specific events and happenings like arguments and the demise of a loved one, or monetary
loss.
- Stages of development such as marriage, or losing physical or mental abilities.
- Loss of a friendship, loss of your favorite hangout, loss of emotional support, your child gets
married or you lose your position at work. You can't pay your mortgage, or you have had a
house fire.
These causes may be single or overlapping with others. But, what about the things you do to add to
your everyday stress where you may not even realize you are helping a problem escalate.
Think about how you can change some bad habits to more productive
and less stressful habits.
Driving on an empty gas tank: - Protect your car, don't drive on low gas. It is stressful
and hard on your engine.
Spending money when you don't have it to spend: Yes, money is worrisome, but
sometimes you charge things which you could live without having, which puts you further into
debt. Think!
Gambling is dangerous: Consider that only 4 percent of gamblers are winners, 20 percent
break even and the rest are losers. Don't start. If you are in trouble with addiction, get help.
Drinking has the same sort of cycle as gambling. You drink to feel good, the drink
wears away or, while you were drinking, you made mistakes that cause more stress in your
life. If you cannot drink in moderation, you must quit drinking and get help.
Driving a car with potential problems: (will that tire go flat again? Will the car start with
the bad battery, just one more time before you get home?) This is too much stress.
Promising to bake that extra batch of cookies: It's hard to say no when people ask
favors but, if you are the kind of person that people always ask, learn to say "No!"
sometimes! You deserve free time and you know those cookies will somehow get baked
without you .
Drugs: - it's a terrible cycle. Relieve stress with drugs, then depend on drugs, and then the
stress of fighting the drugs. Get help!
Promising to drive your friend's kid to school
Promising your boss to golf with him on Sunday
Wanting to say no to a favor request, but saying yes!
Speeding and other illegal things you do while driving: Don't take the chance of running
that yellow light, not paying your tickets on time, not wearing your seatbelt when it is the law.
Late fees for not being organized in paying your bills
Not writing a list when you go to the store
To conquer stress that you can control, you need some self-discipline. Taking control of your life
and owning your own problems is the key to beating stress.
And, amazingly enough, it starts with taking care of the small things.
Types of Stress and its Effects
Acute Stress - When your body faces danger or you are under pressure to complete any
commitment, your brain releases chemicals to increase the rate of pumping of the heart. This
increases blood pressure and you are more energetic to fight off or run away from the danger; or
otherwise increase your ability to put up a good show. You react positively to this short stress.
Chronic Stress - This stress is due to a persistent situation or many stressful incidents. If you are
taking care of someone with chronic disease, or are having problems with your employer, or if you
lack company, then your body responds adversely to such situations. Due to constant exposure to
negative feelings, you develop many diseases such as diabetes, asthma, or nervous or immune
system problems.

One of the main causes of stress is the unresolved problems that continue
to plague us. We have to improve the way we handle our problems. By
developing the right attitude and self-esteem, most of these problems
would just melt away. This self-improvement ebook aims to do just that,
in an easy way.
We all want to be happy, don't we? Have we often forgetten that the
main source for happiness is within us - in our minds? We can choose to
be happy, or not happy, by our thoughts and the actions that follow. You
can learn to lower anxiety and stress and increase your confidence. The
simple equation is that the happier you are, the less stressed you will be.
When we are motivated, stress seems to diasapper. This is a common
experience that we can all bear tesitimony to. Why is that so? One
explanation is that stress is often caused by non-achievement, and when
we are motivated to achieve, we are taking the positive action towards
achievement and so our minds are relieved.
We can be under very great stress when we feel powerless. A good
logical step is therefore to increase our personal power. We need to feel
that we are endowed with gifts from God that will help us to overcome the
undesirable things that stress us down. It is time that we empower
ourselves with the capabilities that God has so graciously provided for us.
