Answer to Question 1

Eustress is a term that explains the positive, desirable stress that keeps life interesting and helps to motivate and inspire. Events such as going off to college, getting married, starting a new job, or having a baby can be happy, joyous, and stress-producing. Eustress also involves managing stress successfully even when dealing with a negative stressor. Eustress can be represented on a curve in which stress level and health and performance increase simultaneously. Eustress implies that a certain amount of stress is useful, beneficial, and even good for our health.

Answer to Question 2

Health is more than just the absence of disease and relates to more than just the physical dimension. Holistic health encompasses physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and social dimensions. An imbalance in any of these dimensions will affect one's health. The holistically healthy person functions as a total, balanced person. In the context of stress, every dimension of health may be negatively affected.
