What “Optimal” Health Is Really Costing You — The Hidden Price Nobody Talks About

What “Optimal” Health Is Really Costing You — The Hidden Price Nobody Talks About

As the image below shows, if you generally feel bored and purposeless, stress is likely too low; if you feel energized and engaged, stress is probably close to your “sweet spot”; and if you feel panicky or so overwhelmed you’ve started to feel hopeless, stress is likely too high.

Image shows a continuum of stress. When stress is too low, we feel bored or purposeless. When stress is just right, we feel energized and engaged. When stress is too high, we feel anxious or numb.

While having a routine for stress management is a smart idea, there’s likely a point of diminishing returns here too. If you’re in that stress “sweet spot” (energized/engaged, not bored and not overwhelmed), then adding more stress reduction techniques might not help further—and may actually add stress by giving you yet another task to do.
