I have become a crusader of sorts in urging people to let go of stress as much as possible. It seems to me, from my own experience, and that of others, that we all take on much more stress, including what I call spillover stress, that which comes from family and other people, than is good for anyone. This seems especially true in these interesting times.
For my own well-being, I am much more quiet now if I feel a personal boundary of protection against the spillover effect has been breached. I don't respond as much as deflect, change the subject, etc.
So...how are your stress levels these days and how are you coping with them?
