Brochure helps woman to de-stress
Modern women need more than Calgon to `take them away' from their stressful
days.
"Women and Stress: Successfully juggling your busy life," a brochure produced
by the Office of Health Promotion at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston,
gives women strategies on dealing with stress and preventing it from interfering
with their lives.
"Women are particularly vulnerable to stress because we juggle multiple
roles," said Dr. Jennifer Hays, director of the Center for Women's Health
at Baylor. "We often try to balance traditional roles at home along with
full-time jobs."
Some stress can help women perform at their peak. But too much is destructive
to their physical and emotional well being. Stress can even come from good
events, such as planning a wedding or receiving a promotion. Unfortunately,
your body doesn't know the difference between "good stress," and "bad stress."
Stress makes a person more susceptible to disease, which then aggravates
any existing illness or chronic condition such as heart disease, depression,
ulcers, irritable bowel disease, diabetes, the common cold, urinary tract
infections, arthritis and asthma. Some people seek comfort from stress by
engaging in behaviors such as alcohol and drug abuse, smoking, or overeating,
which have negative physical and emotional health consequences of their own
have a stressful life.
