There are plenty of stressors (or influences that cause us to feel stressed) in life. Pressures at work or school, an unsatisfying relationship, family or financial problems, or even global concerns about the economy or national security can leave us feeling “stressed out.” Millions of people wake up each morning and their first thoughts are consumed with stress as they begin to think about the day ahead of them.

Stress can affect us mentally and emotionally as tension or strain that leaves us feeling pressured, anxious, depressed, threatened or even fearful. Over time, the stress becomes a heavy weight on our backs, wearing us down both physically and emotionally. It is very common to develop physical ailments in response to unresolved mental and emotional stress, such as headaches, GI tract issues including ulcers or irritable bowel syndrome, or even unexplained back or neck pain. To further compound the issue, these physical ailments themselves will then act as stressors on us because the pain or physical dysfunction they bring will create additional emotional distress.

What we see here, besides a vicious cycle of stress and ailments, is the close synergy between the mind and the body, and that the mind and body actually operate as a single unit: What affects the mind can ultimately affect the body and what affects the body can ultimately affect the mind.
