Stress management is the mastery of specific skills that help reduce the negative effects of stress on the body. Techniques of stress management include diaphragmatic breathing, mental imaging, and progressive muscle relaxation. Both normal and unusual events produce stress in our lives. Stress may have unhealthy effects on our bodies.
Stress is a part of living.
You can't avoid it. What you can change, however, is how you adapt to the stresses of life. This is important because if stress is not handled in a way that is acceptable to your body over a long time, diseases and breakdown in body functions are more likely to occur.
