Review of ways to cope with stress

Are you experiencing stress in your life? Is your stress getting in the way of your sleep. Today, Doug shares 9 healthy ways to cope with stress.

 

Listener questions and comments:
Jessica - How can I better manage stress while caring for a family with multiple mental health and learning challenges? My children have ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities, and my spouse has OCD. As a mom, I feel responsible for managing everyone’s needs. (27:44)
Cindy - I have ADHD, as do my two children and my son-in-law, who is a doctor. ADHD doesn't define you or limit your potential. My son is a professor, and we're all living healthy, successful lives. These kids are simply wired differently! (34:31)
