Imagination & Stress - Cause, Or Cure?

The Guild of Energists (GoE) has posted an article on the topic of SuperMind and Project Sanctuary:

Imagination is a two edged sword. On the one hand, most of the stress experienced by human being isn't a response to any kind of real danger - like a lion appearing around the corner would be to a gazelle - but is in fact a response to IMAGINED horrors, terrors and worst case scenarios. So imagination has a lot to answer for - but what is the answer? Should we switch imagination off so we can stress less, or can we use the very thing that causes us the most stress to live beautiful and worthwhile lives?
