 Stress Rejecters Stand
In future editions of Serenity Pathways, you will have the opportunity to submit topics and ask for feedback or submit articles about how you cope with certain challenges in your life. Share information on how you minimize your anxieties and stressors. Stress Rejecters input is always welcome. Share information on what seems to help at home and work and make things less hectic. Recruit more stress rejecters whether or not they are members of the SRN. As a SRN member you have the right to encourage No Stress Zones or Less Stress Today Hours at home and on the job. The SRN also will have available certificates of Proclamation Against Sustained Stress (PASS) to hang prominently at home and in the work place. Request your No Stress Zones or Less Stress Today Hours and PASS certificates. The certificates will be another visible sign to encourage family, work, and community commitments to less stress and the process of moving stress out of daily life activities. Share with others how you are demonstrating your commitment as a Stress Rejecter.
