Main Cause of Stress

Life’s pressures produce internal reactions in our subconscious of which we are totally unaware. This we call stress. Think about stress as the response of the body to any demand made upon it. This is the main cause of stress. Bear in mind that there are three causes of stress: PHYSICAL, NUTRITIONAL and EMOTIONAL.

Here we are only dealing with emotional stress.

We are all under pressure. We all have internal reactions to those pressures and all of us will have physical symptoms in response to those inner feelings. This leads to Defense. We become defensive. Defense is good. It keeps us from being overcome by a particular stress. But you can’t stay in defense forever, can you?

Defense leads to exhaustion.

This is not a good place to be.
