Notes:
This is a Phase 3 activity
Don't start on this list if you're not up to Phase 3 work at PaulsRobot.
Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale
This is a list of 43 stressful life events that can contribute to illness, per its Wikipedia article. The scale proper has figures that accompany each line, for example "death of spouse" rating 100 and "trouble with in-laws" rating 29. The usual way the scale is used is to score each line with respect to a time period, such as the previous two years, and then add up the total. The higher the score, the higher the risk of illness.
Use at PaulsRobot
The list has been repurposed here to simply serve as a list of possible stressful events in an average person's life, so these can be explored and discharged using various PaulsRobot modules. It will not cover everything, but it is a start.
Purpose of the list
The point of the list is bring relief to the user. It does this by broadly suggesting areas where charged topics might be found, and then leading into procedures that release the encysted sensations and emotions. The idea is to strike a happy medium as shown below. The list would ideally contain the most fruitful areas for individual charged topics to lie, and by gradually working through the list and discharging what gets brought to view, an individual can get a great deal of relief.
Too broad a view
A question like "stress in the Army?" will probably miss, as the guy has already discharged as much as a general look will achieve.
Too narrow a view
On the other hand, a question like, "Did an Irish lieutenant kick you in the nuts?" is likely to miss as being too specific.
Just right
But if a question like "someone got killed?" or "substance abuse?" might well bring a charged topic to view, at which point it can be explored and discharged.
Adding in Rub & Yawn is strongly recommended
