Stress

All about Stress

Pushing yourself to work too hard, staying up too late, eating too much or too little, or worrying constantly is not only stressful on your mind but also stressful on your body. Many medical professionals believe that stress can contribute to heart disease, cancer and an increased chance of accidents.

YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF RELAX BY ASSOCIATING WITH A CUE. GET COMFORTABLE, BREATHE DEEPLY, AND REPEAT A WORD OR SOUND THAT HAS POSSITIVE ASSOCIATIONS (FOR EXAMPLE "LOVE", "HOPE", "PEACE", "YELLOW", "AAAAH") OUT LOUD FOR ONE MINUTE AS YOU CONCERTRATE ON RELAXING. DO IT SEVERAL TIMES A DAY FOR A WEEK.
