E081 How to Turn Stress into De-Stress
Sneak Peek

Stress is one of the key factors in heart attack and stroke, and leads to obesity, high blood pressure, a compromised immune system, and a whole host of emotional problems.
We don’t overtly choose stress, which means we can’t just close our eyes and make it go away. Stress is a response to real life, but the filter between what’s really going on and the meaning you assign to it can, in fact, be part of the problem. In other words, putting your challenges into the right perspective and remaining positive is a key element of coping with stress. There are ways to get there, but when they don’t work there are professionals who can help . . .
