Stress and Health

Honestly, who hasn't heard about this. The number one cause for our daily allergies, sickness is mostly STRESS. Stress releases cortisol, and cortisol reduces our immune system's response. When under stress, we tend to make unhealthy choices that in return weaken our immune system. We barely sleep, we eat that full container of ice cream and simply don't want to exercise, but rather remain as a couch potato. Our health then goes down the drain. The cure? Practice yoga, write a little, take time to view life in a positive way. DON'T STRESS.
