In Part I of this 3 part series, we reviewed what stress is, good vs. bad stress, problems that stress can cause in your life, the negative impact that chronic and high stress levels can have on our physical and mental/emotional well-being. In Part II and Part III (this one), we cover 11 physical and cognitive means that you can use today to begin to combat your stress.
