Get a handle on stress. Stress is how our body responds to the many demands in the world around us. Stress can be positive (ustress) that makes us feel energized and productive or stress can be negative (distress) when we feel overwhelmed and fatigued. We may not be able to control the amount of stress in our life, but we can control how we react to it.
