Stress is a natural emotion, and yet it is so unnecessary. Everyone experiences it, whether it be with work or relationships, but it has no purpose. It takes over our minds on a daily basis like a rash; however, like all emotions, it is something that we can learn to control.

The Truth About Stress
Watch the video before proceeding. The Weight of the World starts on the shoulders of just one girl. Any time you write something, you should be willing to put your face and name to it.

Get Your Zen on With These 6 Simple Habits
Literally everybody suffers from stress in our modern society—from all walks of life, at every age group, and any social status, we've all experienced stress, and we all know it sucks. It's even more daunting if you take into account the physical, mental/emotional, and behavioral effects that stress can have on you (according to The Mayo Clinic). These include, but are not limited to headache, muscle tension or pain, chest pain, fatigue, change in sex drive (oh no!), upset stomach, and sleep problems. It can cause negative mood changes such as anxiety, restlessness, lack of motivation or focus, feeling overwhelmed, irritability or anger, and sadness or depression. Behavioral issues can also arise, like overeating or under-eating, angry outbursts, drug or alcohol abuse, tobacco use, social withdrawal, and exercising less often. These effects can lead to even worse outcomes like heart disease, obesity, cancer, stroke, diabetes and high blood pressure.

Help Yourself and Others with a New Hobby
It’s a fact that modern life is busier now than it ever has been before, with most people struggling to maintain a daily balance between work, family and a social life. It can often feel like there isn’t enough time left over to dedicate to a personal interest, whether that be pursuing something creative or a favorite sport. Recently, I noticed this in my life and decided that I needed to do something about it. Surprisingly, I found that rather than leaving me with even less time, keeping up a regular hobby helped me to realize the full potential of my day and ultimately, made me feel more relaxed and on top of things. It even gave me a new opportunity to help others, too!
