Stress describes a state of worry and mental tension that results from an imbalance between demands and coping strategies, as well as the disruption of physiological homeostasis. It represents an important ability to adapt to environmental factors, and chronically has negative psychological and physical consequences. The mind-body medical program "Healthy in Stress" according to Esch aims to strengthen the individual's ability to deal with stress through comprehensive training. The main target parameter is stress reduction, measured using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS).
