Feeling stressed?
Stress can increase your risk of heart disease and stroke, which is one of the many reasons why it’s so important to recognize and manage it. To manage your stress, you should first identify the causes and then find a healthy way to cope.

Here are 3 ways to decrease your stress:
1. Reduce or eliminate your stressors
2. Set realistic goals
3. Engage in regular physical activity

While there is no single right way to cope with stress, putting yourself first is a great first step.
