The number of stressors has multiplied exponentially: traffic, money, success, work/life balance, the economy, the environment, parenting, family conflict, relationships, disease. As the nature of human life has become far more complicated, our ancient stress response hasn't been able to keep up.

The more you worry, the more you throw off the delicate balance of hormones required for health.

Remember that stress doesn't come from what's going on in your life. It comes from your thoughts about what's going on in your life.
