 INTRODUCTION OF STRESS MANAGEMENT

Stress can be defined as a state of worry

or mental tension caused by a difficult
situation. Stress is a natural human
response that prompts us to address
challenges and threats in our lives.
Everyone experiences stress to some
degree. The way we respond to stress,
however, makes a big difference to our
overall well-being.

be due to work pressure, meeting deadlines pressure or minor
accident, over exertion, increased physical activity, searching
something but you misplaced it, or similar things. Symptoms of this
type of tension are headaches, back pain, stomach problems, rapid
heartbeat, muscle aches or body pain.

the 3 stress types. Chronic stress is a prolonged stress that exists
for weeks, months, or even years. This stress is due to poverty,
