STRESS!!!! Unfortunately, we all have to deal with it. Family problems, health issues, the economy, work, financial stuggles and on and on....

...And science tells us that the way we handle life's problems can have alot to do with our level of health. That's why it's so critical that we learn how to handle problems as well as we possibly can.

Natural Stress Busters:

• LEARN TO SAY "NO": In other words don't "bite off more than you can chew". Learn your limitations and don't commit to more than you can physically or mentally handle.



• START A REGULAR EXERCISE PROGRAM: This is a great way to release tension and it has many other health benefits. Even something as simple as a regular walking routine can do the trick. Just don't overdue it whatever you decide to take up and always warm-up before doing any vigourous exercise to avoid injury. (ALWAYS CONSULT A LICENSED PHYSICAN BEFORE STARTING ANY EXERCISE PROGRAM.)


• DON"T SPEND MORE MONEY THAN YOU MAKE: More and more Americans fall into debt every day. This can really take a toll on your peace of mind and your nerves. Ask yourself a question before you buy something: DO I REALLY NEED THIS? Also, if you are in serious debt, there are different organizations that can help you consolidate it so you can get your life back. Look into your options.



• DON'T PROCRASTINATE: Always waiting to the last minute to do something you could have done at an earlier time just causes unnessesary stress and tension that you don't need in your life.


• GET A PET: Studies have shown that pets can have a calming influence on their owners and help relieve stress. (IMPORTANT NOTE: You should only get a pet if you KNOW you can properly take care of it and give it the loving attention and care it deserves.) If you have the right circumstances, there are many lonely cats and dogs looking for good homes. Check with your nearest shelter.


• TAKE UP A HOBBY: You might want to learn to play a musical instrument or take up painting or even start playing tennis. Whatever you think you would enjoy, just give it a try. This could really help take your mind of your problems and help you relax occassionally.


• HAVE A LAZY DAY: Sometimes you just need to take a day off and just relax . Maybe sleep late, go to the beach, read a good book, go see a movie or whatever you feel like doing. You deserve it once and awhile, especially if you're a workaholic. Everything in moderation.


• AVOID NEGATIVE PEOPLE WHEN POSSIBLE: When you can, try to associate with people who have a positive outlook on life and avoid negative people who bring you down and wear you out.


• PERFORM A RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS: You've probably heard the Biblical expression: "There is more happiness in giving then there is in receiving." Science backs this saying up.

When you do things for others, it causes a positive chemical reaction in your body that lifts your "spirits" and just makes you feel good about yourself. This helps relieve some of the tension in your life and gives you a chance to forget about your problems for awhile. Your kind act could also really help someone else have a better day.



• GIVE YOURSELF SOME QUIET TIME: Try to take some time each day to relax in a quiet spot somewhere. (It could be in your bedroom or at a park or a sandy beach) Even if it's just for 15 minutes a day to gather your thoughts. You might want to try some visualization techniques. Some find it relaxing to visualize themselves doing something they enjoy or visualizing a time in their life when they were really happy. The more emotion you put into it, the better you will feel. Your mind will begin to actually think it's a reality and not just your imagination. This is a simple but very powerful technique.

If you want more visualizing techniques, go to your local bookstore and buy a book that explains it more thoroughly.


• SMILE MORE: It has been shown that just the act of smiling can have a positive effect on your body chemistry. It releases certain chemicals in your body that relieve tension and reduce stess.


• AVOID PERFECTIONISM: You should always take pride in everything you do. However, don't expect more from yourself and from others beyond a resoanable point. Do the best you can and move on to other things that need to get done.


• LAUGHTER TRULY IS THE BEST MEDICINE: Try to bring more laughter in your life. Hang around with friends that make you laugh or watch a good sit-com to reduce stress and release some pent-up tension you may have. Scientific studies have shown that laughter adds years to your life. Laugh as much as you can.


• TAKE A NATURAL B VITAMIN COMPLEX SUPPLEMENT: When you are under alot of stress it depletes your body of B vitamins. It's vital to replace these important nutrients.


• GET A PROFESSIONAL MASSAGE: Very few things can help you relax like a nice professional massage. If you are overstressed, you may want to give it a try. Or better yet, get a massage chair and have a relaxing massage any time you want to in the privacy of your own home.




• MAKE SURE YOU GET PLENTY OF SLEEP: Everyone handles life's challenges much better when they are not overtired. Don't stay up too late watching the late, late, late show. 2 hours of sleep before 12:00 is better than 4 hours after 12:00. If you suffer from insomnia, there are natural remedies that can help you fall asleep FAST!

•TAKE A NICE RELAXING VACATION: All work and no play makes for a very stressful life. Plan a trip to somewhere nice that you've always wanted to go. Take it easy for a while. You deserve it.

Applying a few of these tecnniques can really help you reduce the level of stress in your life and could also help you to improve your general well-being. Don't underestimate the effect your emotions have on your overall health. Even though we all face stress daily, we can learn to cope with it better.
