Alia Crum, PhD from Stanford, and her work on stress have changed how we view stress. She has several searchable videos on YouTube. This is a TedTalk she did several years ago about stress, mindset, placebo, etc.
In a later interview, she discussed her nervousness about giving this talk. You can tell in her voice. She stated in that later interview how she “channeled” her stress based on the literature she discussed in this video (as well as others).
This is worth a listen to “re-look” at how we might view stress in our lives.
