This is the second post today about how positive acts and positive information can improve the lives of all individuals. It is a re-post and lists positive news sources you can reach daily to read something positive.
Warm regards, Peter
An article by Nicole Spector on December 16, 2017 in www.nbcnews.com/better described a study by the American Psychological Association released in February 2017 that found that two-thirds of Americans are stressed out over the future of the country, and the constant consumption of negative news was pinned as a major contributor. Dr. Steven Stosny, a therapist coined the term “headline stress disorder” that describes this reality.
The point was made by Dr. Jana Scrivani in that same article that, “Subjecting ourselves to an endless barrage of tragedies and traumas can foster a real sense of being out of control.” The article suggested that trying to get good news is one way to lessen the negative impact of headline stress disorder.
