Significant Life Events

They say that, for us humans, significant life events - good or bad - cause stress.

Oh, really?

Time for a quick "life change inventory".  So, I checked the web and found the Holmes & Rahe Life Events Scale. I scanned the list, checked everything we've experienced in the last year, or are in the middle of, and discovered I'm a high achiever.  And, no surprise, so is Boris.

What's our average score?  308.

And, the interpretation of our results?
Your score means a significant amount of life change and a significant susceptability (about 80% probability) to stress-related illness. However please keep in mind that there are many variables that interact on health including positive factors such as support from family, friends or work associates. If you are concerned about your stress levels then you should seek the assistance of a qualified counsellor or health practitioner.
Us, concerned? 

Not anymore.

We know exactly what we need to do to slow down and get our stress in check.  

We'll be there soon!
