Quotes:
"People who reported that they'd had experienced a lot of stress in the last year but had no such belief that stress was affecting their health in a negative way, were the least likely group of participants to be dead eight years later. This means our thoughts about stress are killing us and stress may be associated with longevity." - Cheri on University of Madison's stress study via K. McGonigol's book, The Upside of Stress
"We need to think differently about stress and get better at stress...not get rid of it, not manage it, but get better at it. And especially get better at how we're thinking about stress." - Cheri
"People who report moderate levels of stress have a healthier brain." - Cheri
"The idea is that it’s okay when stress comes in...Stress is part of living. It is one of the things that makes us wonderful. Stress is how you've overcome obstacles, it's the thing that has changed you and made you who you are today." - Cheri
