So you want to take a
stress test? You're already stressed. Why do you want to find out how
much stress you have?
A stress test will
show you where
and to what degree you are under stress. The point of a stress test is
to get you to move beyond finding out about your stress and actually
DOING something about it. That's exactly what we show you how to do in
The Ultimate Natural Stress Management Manual.
There are several
stress tests
available. There are several tests in The Ultimate Natural Stress
Management Manual and they each have action keys for you to follow.
The following is a
SYMPTOM stress
test. All you do is add up the number of the following choices below.
