So what can you really do to reduce stress, or at least lessen the impact on your life?

Yoga is something that really works for me. I was talking to my yoga teacher after class this past Monday. We both observed how much better we feel after a good yoga class.

My mind feels much calmer. Not only that, I can actually feel a difference in my body.

Movement is one of the best ways to combat stress. When a zebra is stressed by an attacking lion, what does it do? Run! Stress triggers a need for movement in the body.

When the zebra is done running and the lion ate somebody else, then what? He takes a rest.

Yoga combines movement, with deep breathing and relaxation. That is what makes it a great stress solution. It works with that mind-body connection.
