The Impact of the Human Stress Response: The biological origins and solutions to human stress Modernization of our society has resulted in the devastating epidemic of stress-induced diseases, resulting in incalculable human suffering and trillion dollar losses worldwide each year. Author and scientist, Dr. Mary Wingo shares six rules for scientifically managing stress from her book, The Impact of the Human Stress Response: The biological origins, causes and solutions to human stress, which will be released in April 2016. Stress is not only due to the threat or fear. Stress results because we attempt to adapt to our environment (chapter one). The disease occurs when this mechanism is overused or malfunctioning. It is critically important not to add extra stressors to the already stressed body part during the Resistance Stage (chapter five). The most intense stressors we are experiencing are between each other as social beings (chapter eight).Learning the skill of empathy is crucial. Along with repair, maintenance, and reproduction, we also spend much of our energy adapting to the environment. We must take a full inventory of our lives for the price we pay for always “adapting” (chapter two). When the stress response mechanism becomes fatigued, the affected body part becomes exhausted. These affected parts can include the mind, as well as all other organs. As we try to adapt to our environment, we must take note how much “novelty” we endure. If it is too much, we must limit our stimulation or our stress mechanisms will fatigue, limiting further attempts to adapt. About the book: The Impact of the Human Stress Response: The biological origins, causes and solutions to human stress examine one of science’s burning issues - the epidemic of stress currently ravaging the Western world. Inflicting trillions of dollars of social and economic damage, stress is devastating our health. But what exactly is “stress”? And what gives it the potential to cause so much damage?
