Nothing takes its toll on the body like stress. In addition to the mental damage that it causes, stress is also linked to many diseases, including cancer. Unfortunately, in today's world, most of us are experiencing a stressful life with no way to get out of it - or so we think. We continue the merry-go-round of stress and often look to pills or even self-medication to solve the problem of stress for us. We joke that we are "stressed out" or "running on stress" when in reality, this is no joke. Stress is a killer, yet it is something that cannot be avoided. Stress management is the key to having a happier and more tranquil life.

Many of the techniques to manage stress and allow you to break free from the cycle of living a stress filled life are easy to learn and incorporate into your daily routine.
