Name	Homeostatic state
Description	Sociologists and psychologists may refer to stress homeostasis, the tendency of a population or an individual to stay at a certain level of stress, often generating artificial stresses if the "natural" level of stress is not enough.

He states that homeostasis will prevent our body from making drastic changes and maintain stability in our lives even if it is detrimental to us.
