Watch That Stress
Stress can be beneficial by helping you develop skills to cope with and adapt to new and potentially threatening situations throughout life. However, the beneficial aspects diminish when the stress is severe enough to overwhelm your ability to take care of yourself and your family.
How can you reduce your stress? Take time to relax, meditate, do yoga, practice deep breathing, ask for help when you feel overwhelmed, and/or talk about your problems with someone you trust.
