Healthy Tip: Stress Management
Today, our world is all about multitasking. Between work, family obligations, hobbies, and everyday responsibilities, it’s easy to feel maxed out and stressed. This may seem a normal part of life, but did you know that stress could be impacting your risk for developing chronic illnesses?
Things you can do to manage stress:
- Be intentional with your rest.
- Get outside, exercise or do something that refreshes you – something as simple as taking a walk.
- Get organized – Write out a to-do list, clean up a messy space, or organize a junk drawer to clear your head.
- Do a brain dump – Grab a piece of paper and write out everything that’s floating around in your mind to make room for calmer thoughts.
