What is stress and how do we address the problem of stress?

Stress can be defined as a state of worry or mental tension caused by a difficult situation. Stress is a natural human response that prompts us to address challenges and threats in our lives. Everyone experiences stress to some degree. The way we respond to stress, however, makes a big difference to our overall well-being.

The modern science is limited to understanding of the physical universe, and we went on
understanding this physical world as the first phase of our understanding of the whole creation.
Scientific discoveries and technological progresses by bay of development and advancement in
medicine and treatment procedures were not adequate enough to address the problem of stress,
because of its one-dimensional understanding of this world, ie, only in physical terms.
The phenomenon of Stress is not merely physical. It is multidimensional in nature,
Mental restlessness, emotional upsurges, psychological conflict all are part of it.
Challenges are multidimensional; physical, mental, emotional, intellectual. And hence the solution
also needs to be multi-dimensional in nature. Multi-dimensional challenge cannot be solved with one-
dimensional solution. That’s why we consistently failed in meeting the challenge of stress.
