Relieving Stress May Improve our Health

I have heard for so long that stress can create so many health problems. I recently read an article that suggests stress and cancer can even be linked. I think it is pretty obvious that stress can cause other problems such as high blood pressure, strokes, head aches and other things. Of course, I am not a doctor so I can't speak from a professional point of view on the topic of stress.

I can, however, speak from my own experience.

Stress leads to problems. Chest pains and headaches are only a couple of the health issues I have experienced that I connect to stress in my life. Recently I have even developed high blood pressure. Interesting since my blood pressure has always been low, yet recently the stress in my life seems to be escalating.

I made a conscious decision to try to lessen the stress in my life, but that is certainly more easily said then done. How does one lessen their stress? I recently talked to my doctor, spoke with friends, and am even reading a book to do research on this topic. I believe it is important, not just for me, but for all of us to strive to lower the amount of stress we encounter in our lives.

So I have decided to do a series of short articles on this blog sharing with you what I am doing to lower stress in my life. I am hoping we can all benefit from my quest to lower stress in my life.
