This is a response to things around you that cause stress, such as noise, crowding, and pressure from work or family. Identifying these environmental stresses and learning to avoid them or deal with them will help lower your stress level.

Stress of Family Pressure
One Way of Stress Avoidance
A gravely ill man went to the doctor with his wife. After the examination the physician motioned for the wife to meet him in the hallway. "Your husband is very sick", the doctor said, "but there are three things you can do to ensure his survival. First, fix him three healthful, delicious meals a day. Next, give him a stress-free environment, and don't complain about anything. Finally, make passionate love to him every day.
On the drive home the husband asked, "What did the doctor say?"
"I'm sorry, " the wife said, "but the Doctor said, you're not going to make it.”

In the AA program (Alcoholics Anonymous)
They have a Serenity Prayer and it is something like this:
God grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change; COURAGE to change the things I can; and WISDOM to know the difference.
Remembering that prayer, or the meaning of it would just about take care of any and all environmental stress………..
