Don't let it...: ...make you sick. Chronic stress, a mainstay of modern life, doesn't merely exacerbate disease, it can cause it. Here are a few: 1) the common cold; 2) weight gain; 3) slower healing; 4) sleep dysfunction; 5) heart disease; 6) depression; 7) ulcers & other GI problems (like Irritable Bowel, indigestion/dyspepsia, flares of Crohn's/ulcerative colitis); 8) back, neck, & shoulder pain.
