Editor's Notes
- (Enthusiastically greet crowd) Good morning! How is everyone doing today?! Wake up, wake up, wake up! Everyone, please stand up and jump up and down and twist your low backs to the left, then back to the right. Jump up and down a couple more times, then have a seat again. (After they do it) Now I want you to think about how that little exercise made you all feel? We will come back to that later.

- Because chronic stressors have become such a part of modern life, they may be taken for granted and can therefore pose a serious health risk if they are not recognized and properly managed. Intermittent stressors are the most common, alternating between periods of stress and calm. If an intermittent stressor is viewed as a challenge, it may improve one's resistance to stress by causing repeated, increases in sympathetic arousal which conditions the body to better withstand stressors. (Mandler, 1982).
- Stress is a necessary part of life. Without stress, we would die. In essence, stress is good and it keeps us alive. Our body has an innate ability to adapt to acute stress. The problem arises once acute stress becomes chronic. Chronic stress overworks the adrenal glands and the neuro-immune system.
- If the stressful situation is prolonged, the high level of hormones during the resistance phase may upset homeostasis and harm internal organs leaving the organism vulnerable to disease. There is evidence from animal research that the adrenal glands actually increase in size during the resistance stage which may reflect the prolonged activity. The Exhaustion stage occurs after prolonged resistance. During this stage, the body's energy reserves are finally exhausted and breakdown occurs. Selye has noted that, in humans, many of the diseases precipitated or caused by stress occur in the resistance stage and he refers to these as "diseases of adaptation." These diseases of adaptation include headaches, insomnia, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Hans Selye (1985)
