The stress response of the body is destined to protect and support us. When a physical or mental event threatens this equilibrium, we react to it. This process is often referred to as the "fight or flight response." We prepare for physical action in order to confront or flee a threat.

Most modern stresses, however, do not call for either fight or flight. Our experience of stress is generally related to how we respond to an event, not to the event itself. Our ancestors responded to stressful ordeals in this fashion. A sad but true fact is that everybody is looking at way to relieve their stress as they feel it is beyond their grasp. And the simplest way to find relief from stress is by simply letting go of it by indulging in some or the other activity that brings peace to the mind.
