  Job Stress It is estimated that job stress costs Americans more than $300 billion annually due to diminished productivity, absenteeism, and employee turnover, medical, legal and insurance fees. It is also projected that 60 to 80% of all work related accidents are due to stress. Some of the most noted examples of this are the Three Mile Island nuclear incident and the Exxon Valdez oil disaster. They have cost billions in clean up efforts alone, to say nothing of the devastating environmental damage.
 

Transforming Stress Before it becomes DISEASE Stress is the underlying cause of 85 to 90% of visits to the doctor and includes Fibromyalgia, Headaches and other Chronic Pain syndromes. If this is so and the research shows it to be true, then why do we not recognize these stressors? How is it that we let stress create such problems in our lives? These questions are being studied more than ever before as is noted in the latest issues of Time, News Week, US News and World Report, National Geographic and a host of other weekly and monthly magazines including O, The Oprah Magazine.
