STRESS . . . What is it? Stress: Any situation real or imagined that causes the body to adjust or change. Stress is perceived: What is stressful for one may not be for another.

4 Sources of stress . . . Where does it come from? Mental: our own thoughts; #1 source of stress. OURSELVES. Social: parents, friends, peers, teachers. Environmental: noise in the background, chaos around you. Physiological: proper sleep, exercise and nutrition.

Resistance: body attempts to regain balance. Homeostasis: body continues to maintain internal balance regardless of external. Exhaustion: harmful body changes; decreased resistance to disease and injury. Key is: stress management before reaching the exhaustion stage.
