We all have stress at work, at home, and on the road. Sometimes we can feel especially stressed because of a bad interaction with someone, too much work, or everyday hassles like getting stuck in traffic. Negative stress can keep you from feeling and performing your best mentally, physically and emotionally. But no ones life is completely stress-free. Its important to know how to manage the stress in your life.

This class will provide you an overview of what stress is -- there is beneficial stress (called eustress) like an upcoming wedding or the holidays, and pathological stress. We will discuss the physiology and psychology of both these types. Our focus will be how to manage stress that we deal with daily. You will leave this class with simple and easy to use techniques and references for further education in its management.
