每年的10月10日是 "世界精神卫生日"（World Mental Health Day）。身心都健康是获得幸福的前提之一。
　　Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health. 压力是日常生活中很自然的一部分，无法避免。一定程度的压力对于催人前进至关重要。只有当压力过大时，人们才会表现欠佳，健康受损。
　　What can you do to prevent your emotions from making you sick? Learn to take care of your mind as well as your body. The foundations of good health lie in love, laughter and self-confidence. 怎样才能使你的健康不受情感的影响？学会关心你的身体，也关心你的头脑。健康的基础在于爱，笑声和自信。
　　The stress and strain of contemporary life is such that the search for ways of meeting such tensions is regarded as a major concern. It is suggested that it is better to release tensions through relaxing oneself than leave them pent up. 现代生活给人们带来了巨大的压力和紧张感，寻求应对这些压力的方法被视为一桩大事。有人建议，通过放松自己来消除压力，这比把它压抑在心里要好。
