Food for thought: Your relationship with stress

Think of a recent situation that triggered a stress reaction. This could be a conflict with someone you know, an unexpected repair to your home, or a problem at work, for example.

  • How did you react to this stress?
  • How did your body react when you experienced this stress?
  • How did you feel in terms of sensations and emotions?
  • What did you think?

Share your thoughts with your partner or someone close to you. Reflecting on this will help you to know when to ask for help.
