Actually, "stress" is extremely easy to measure: You have stress, you have specific hormones in your bloodstream. Those hormones change things in your body, like redirect the blood in your body contracting or extending blood vessels. >who doesn't feel some stress throughout the day? It is a quantity thing, you can feel stressed during seconds, or during hours or during entire days. For example, in a war when your family members could die at any moment, you feel stress for days. In you live in peace you just don't have an idea what that means. I have not lived war myself but I had close contact with people in Ukraine and in the past conflicts like Congo or Central Africa Republic and other African wars.
