When Stress Levels Get Too High!
Long Term Stress can have devastating effects to your health and well being. How do you better manage it since it can't be avoided?

Untreated chronic (long-term) stress can lead to muscle pain, insomnia, hypertension (high blood pressure), a weaker immune system and anxiety, which can lead to dozens of illnesses, including heart disease, depression, and obesity.
