Chapter14+Stress+Health+and+Happiness

Hello AP Psych students. I hope you are doing well and living a stress free life.....actually that's a pretty unrealistic expectation. We all have stress. In fact, stress isn't a bad thing necessarily. Recently, 2008 grad Sarah Rogers stopped by and dropped off a copy of Mary Carmichael's "Who Says STRESS Is Bad For You?" article from the February 23, 2009 issue of NEWSWEEK magazine. The article is terrific and I'm including a link for it here (just click the word [|STRES]S here to link to it). There are also 2 sub articles (" [|The Usual Suspec]t " and "[|Lessons in] Survival"). These are great articles to introduce yourself to the concepts and problems of stress in daily life. Thank you to Sarah for her contribution (and, as always, good luck at West Chester Sarah - I know you'll do well but I wish you luck anyway).
