Reference no: EM133276014

Case: The purpose of this assignment is to help you understand the relationship between stress and health habits. When people are stressed, their behaviors change, and they often indulge in unhealthy behaviors, which they might not if they were not stressed. Also, stress may reduce people's motivations to adhere to healthy habits, such as a healthy diet or an exercise regimen. Therefore, stress can reduce people's adherence to healthy behavior in two ways-adding unhealthy behaviors and failing to enact healthy ones. For this assignment, first view this video:
