What is Stress ?......

Stress of Today

Most of us today, suffer some symptoms of stress.

Juggling family commitments, work pressure and daily challenges. The demands can often feel as if they outweig our resources.

Weighing at the scales is our environment, society and expectations.

Noise pollution and chemical toxins are high on that list, where once the land was clean, fresh and soothing with only the sounds of nature. We have sounds of road, train and air traffic, factories, tv, radio and well mobile phones everywhere......

The known fight or flight reaction once equipped us to deal with the necessary temporary physiological changes to survive in pre-historic times.

But have we evolved to cope with demands and stress of today?

Although technology and society has evolved dramatically throughout the centuries can our bodies evolve as quickly too ?

Few of can now switch "off" and relax.

Many of us use sleeping tablets, anti-depressants or mood enhancers. We are stressed, unhappy and seeking something "more" often "peace of mind".
