Positive or "good" stress is short-term and can motivate improved performance, while chronic or "bad" stress has long-term negative physical and mental impacts if the body does not get a chance to relax. Common sources of stress include work, family, survival threats, and internal worrying. Religious perspectives recommend managing stress through prayer, Quran recitation, positive thinking, exercise, and seeking help from others.
