Topic of the week: STRESS | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
STRESS. A term used mostly in physics to mean strain, pressure, or force on a system. When used in relation to the body cells, it describes the effects of the body reacting, that is, the buildup of pressure, the strain of muscles tensing. For the purpose of this site, stress is taken to mean a fairly predictable arousal of psychphysiological (mind-body) systems which, if prolonged, can fatigue or damage the system to the point of malfunction and diseaseWhat casuses stress? < Well, there are three biggies. The first of which are psychosocial causes. This is stress caused by interaction between social behavior and the way our senses and our minds interpret those behaviors. Blah Blah Blah...But what does that mean? Well quite frankly most of the stress that we are under or societal stress is determined by the meanings that we assign to the events in our lives. In addition, different people are likely to interpret different meanings to the same situation and this in turn explains why each person's pattern of societal stress is unique. The second major cause of stress what they call bioecological causes. These stressors basically are biologically related and may arise out of our relationship with our environment. They are only minimally subject to differing interpretations. The last cause of stress is personality causes. These reflect the dynamics of an individuals self perception and characteristic attitudes and behaviors which may somehow contribute to excessive stress.---For an excellent book on this topic, please read CONTROLLING STRESS AND TENSION by Daniel Girdano and George Everly, Jr. .
