Chronic stress isn't just an unpleasant feeling--it's a health hazard.

Don't have the time or the money to take yourself to a spa for a week to mellow out properly? Here are some cheaper, quicker alternatives.

Calm Down Quick

think about taking just two minutes today to relax.

Exercise

you need it even more now

Use Your Head

Stress seems to be coming from outside demands

often, its ridiculous things we tell ourselves that make things so much worse

Practice Gratitude

make a special effort to notice a few things every day that you appreciate

Reach Out

be selective about who you tell your troubles too
