Stress

Stress..the silent killer? Stress a lifeline for connecting us to others and arising to the occasion.

John D. Ellis M.A. AMFT:
Is stress the enemy as we have been taught?

Should we continue to battle stress by reducing it, eliminating it or managing it?

I believe that belief is as powerful as Kelly McGonigal describes in relation to reframing stress and your bodies response to arise to the occasion.  I believe the findings concerning oxytocin and reaching out to people maintains health and longevity.

Take sometime to reframe your beliefs concerning stress.  My favorite line was at the end when she stated that chasing meaning is healthier than avoiding discomfort.  I have found a new maxim, premise, motto and mantra for life in those words.
