Answer to Question 2
The essential concept in preventing stress is that no event in life is inherently stressful. Rather, we make stressful interpretations of the events of our days. No event in life causes stress universally for everyone. We have decided that some facet of the situation will inflict pain or discomfort, which may be physical, emotional, or spiritual. The situation also may be seen as a threat to our sense of well-being and comfort. This understanding shifts the influence of what causes stress from external factors to internal control. Although some situations, such as a tsunami, a hurricane, an incurable illness, or being attacked, will be interpreted as stressful almost universally, we usually have the power to take control of how we interpret any event in life.
