Too many balls in the air? Lets face it, in our too-much-to-do world, life becomes a juggling act. You can't eliminate stress, but you can change your response to it. Take this test to find out how stressed you are. Then discover how Origins can help. We use aromatic essential oils and botanical extracts to help you access the state of calm, so you can feel positively energized, confident and relaxed.

1.	How often do you feel stressed-out?

All the time. Several times a week. On occasion. Rarely.

2.	Which of the following best describes your overall reaction to stress?

I get anxious. I can lose my temper. I pull back from relationships and lose confidence. I get focused and energized.

3.	When confronted with a setback, loss or emotional hit, I generally
go into panic-mode. get physically upset (my head tightens, my stomach does flip-flops). get overwhelmed. shrug it off and say "oh, well" and move on.

4.	When someone or something pushes my buttons during the day, I

think about how sweet revenge would be. get tense and seethe quietly. yell four letter words and lots of them! forgive, forget and let it go. It's not worth it.

5.	When under extreme pressure, I

become forgetful and have trouble concentrating. toss and turn at night, my energy plummets. take it out on everyone around me. Better steer clear! see it as a personal challenge and rally myself to take action.

6.	There you are, in bumper to bumper traffic, just sitting there. Time is ticking. You're late for a meeting, you

worry, your whole day is ruined. feel like there is bumper to bumper traffic in your head. think that's it, I'm fired. listen to the radio.

7.	Your boss, spouse, friend is in a rotten mood. You

clam up and think here we go again. snarl back at him/her. look hurt. say, "I'd rather listen when you calm down."
