Stress

Things that are guaranteed to raise my heart rate.

• Arriving late for an appointment.
• Driving somewhere new.
• Cooking a new recipe with lots of ingredients.
• Going into a shop 5 minutes before they are due to close.
• Baking with children.
• Overtaking.
• Fitting everything into the case at the end of a long haul holiday.
• Walking into an unfamiliar bar trying to find the friends I am meeting.
• Parallel parking when it's raining.
• Catering for large groups of people.
• Going to a new hairdresser for the first time.
