Are you feeling more stressed or anxious than usual? It seems many people are. Kids are still having a difficult time adjusting to their return to school with regular school hours and homework. Adults are feeling stressed over their jobs, stress at home, and more. Some simple things can help alleviate some of the stress. Going outdoors even for just a few minutes can help if you really look around you–notice the clouds in the sky, listen to bird song, feel the presence of the trees, and the sun or wind on your face. Exercise, even if just a walk, can really elevate one’s mood. If you feel you are having trouble managing your stress yourself you may benefit from talking with a professional.
