Phyllis,
Great advise for your students. Expected and unexpected stress are definitely two different situations. We need to always consider how we deal with both. When we have a situation where we experience trauma, loss of someone (personal) or injury always causes us to draw upon our ability to gain balance in our lives. If we carry on our lives with good health habits, exercise, mental activity and spiritual rejuvenation we will have a better chance of dealing with the unexpected and unwanted stress.
