Stress can be considered as much a risk factor for disease as smoking. Why can two people be in the same situation and respond to stress in different ways? Can changing the way we carry stress be a learnable skill? Come and learn the difference between good and bad stress, increase awareness of how stress impacts the body, and hear about the emerging pattern matching specific symptoms and diseases with specific stresses. Everyone will learn a technique to minimize stress and maximize vitality. Registration is required.
