Q: Can I train myself to get better at managing stress?
A: Yes!
It’s all about:
- Recognizing when you’re stressed, and
- Finding stress management techniques that work for you
Everyone experiences stress differently.
- Some people get physical symptoms (headaches or an upset stomach)
- Others might get anxious, angry, or can’t sleep
- And some can get both
