The Balance of Life


              ▪ Previous experiences make a difference to how easily a person can manage stressors.
              ▪ Lots of good experiences mean we are able to manage difficult times more easily.
              ▪ Lots of bad experiences can lead a person to be more vulnerable and sensitive to stressors.
