Stress Totems

'Stress: Pressure or tension exerted on a material object / A state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or demanding circumstances / Particular emphasis or importance'

'Totem: A natural object or animal that is believed by a particular society to have spiritual significance and that is adopted by it as an emblem.'
