Cumulative stress isn’t about one big event ~ it’s the weight of unprocessed moments stacking up over time. The good news? Healing is possible at any point, one small step at a time.


Stress Test for Adults 




Stress is a natural response to life’s challenges, but when it becomes overwhelming or constant, it can take a toll on your well-being. This personal stress test is designed to help you assess where you are right now ~ without judgment or pressure.

Stress can be difficult to understand. The emotional chaos it causes can make our daily lives miserable and decrease our physical health, sometimes drastically. We are not always aware that we are under stress. The habits, attitudes, and signs that alert us to problems may be hard to recognize because they are so familiar. Find your stress level right now by completing this test.

By reflecting on different areas of your life, you’ll gain insight into how stress affects your mind, body, emotions, and spirit. This is not a diagnostic tool but rather a self-awareness exercise to help you recognize patterns, identify stressors and take the next steps toward balance and resilience.
