Stress has become a common phenomenon in our society nowadays. For some, stress is social status, or they equate it to success. Stress is your body’s reaction to challenges and demands. The advancement of technology, the internet, and social media that supposedly will make our life easier contribute more to our stress. When you are not careful, stress can affect your physical, emotional, and mental health. Hence, nowadays, many get physically or mentally sick, which affects their effectiveness, efficiency, productivity, relationships, happiness, and quality of life. Hence, managing and reducing stress is essential for your overall well-being and happiness.
However, many stress reduction strategies people use are usually band-aid approaches to their stress. They fail to consider the root cause of their stress. Hence, many are stuck on the stress roller coaster. You may not be aware of it, but stress is an outward manifestation of what’s happening inside you. The problem is that many don’t know what’s going on within them. You might be one of those who don't know why a certain stimulus triggers an intense emotional reaction from you. Unless you know your stress triggers and their roots, they will continue to dominate and control you.
