I would say that it's a kind of humility in the face of insults, or rolling with the punches, or even just accepting the pain of a belly-flop in the swimming pool of life. It *does* hurt, it just doesn't show on the surface, and you accept it as the cost of doing business. So, if I could put what I do to stay so calm all the time into a single slogan, I guess I would say "accept the pain." Not sure if it's the healthiest thing to do, but it seems like that's what Type 9 is all about.
The way I react to stress is to do what I think of as rocking in the corner in fetal position, sucking my thumb, but to an outside observer, would just look like vegging out in front of the tv.
