No More Rehashing the Old Stuff

"Stress is the trash of modern life-we all generate it but if you don't dispose of it properly. it will pile up and overtake your life"- Danzae Pace

According to a recent article in Moods magazine, our brain does not distinguish between an actual event and the emotions connected to the event. Every time we rehash and retell the story, our bodies are subjected to the same stress it experienced during the past event.
Think about it. Remember the last argument you had and when you told someone else the story, you got all upset again.
We don't need more studies on the link between stress and illness. We have been studying it since the late 1800's. It is now time for the thinkers in our society to start doing something different. In fact, it's time for employers to implement services that address stress as it happens.
