Eustress & Distress

Do you think Stress is a bad thing? Stress actually helps us learn, grow, heal, evolve, and adapt! Stress is absolutely necessary in our life, as a means of not only surviving, but thriving!
Stress that allows us to grow positively as individuals is termed “Eustress.”
Now we all can relate to feelings of overwhelment, anxiety, fear, worry, doubt, and absolute rotten pain! This type of stress can be termed “Distress.”
Here is what is amazing. We as humans with the Power of our own Minds have the capacity and ability to turn ANY Distress into Eustress! What does that mean exactly? That means you can take a perceived negative stressor and with the Power of your thought and emotion, you can turn it into a positive stressor ~ something that will allow you to grow, learn, heal, evolve and adapt!
Look at stress in a new light ~ look at it as something that can support you gain ultimately more fulfillment in Life. Even those aches and pains for instance can be perceived as an opportunity for you to learn about your body and what it requires from you to live with more vibrancy, so those aches and pains dissolve.
This takes courage, self-discipline, and self-responsibility. We are here to help you on your journey!
