Take a minute to do some deep breathing. Inhale through your nose and fill your belly with a cleansing breathe and exhale slowly. Repeat a few times until you feel a sense of calm and awareness of the moment. Deep breathing can help with relaxation, so do this in times when you need to recenter and ground yourself in stressful times.
April is Stress Awareness Month. Stress is a common and significant health issue that can lead to various problems, including anxiety, depression, heart disease, and obesity. By taking time to understand how stress affects our mind and bodies, we can begin to build a toolbox of exercises that can help us work through stress in healthy and meaningful ways.
If your stress is overwhelming and leading to unhealthy coping behaviors, consider reaching out at YKHC’s Behavioral Health team at 907-543-6100 or visit www.ykhc.org/behavioral-health
