Stress is part of everyday life, but when it builds up it can affect your sleep, blood pressure and mood. A few small habits make a real difference.

‍

1. Signs Stress Is Affecting Your Health

• Trouble falling or staying asleep
• Frequent headaches or muscle tension
• Feeling tired even after rest
• Changes in appetite or digestion

‍

2. Daily Habits That Help

• Take short breaks away from screens during the day
• Walk for twenty minutes, ideally outdoors
• Keep regular sleep and meal times
• Limit caffeine in the afternoon

‍

3. Slow Breathing in Two Minutes

Breathe in through your nose for four counts, hold briefly, then breathe out slowly for six counts. Repeat for two minutes when you feel tension rising.

‍

4. When to Ask for Help

If stress lasts for weeks, affects your work or relationships, or comes with low mood or anxiety, talk to your doctor. Our counselors offer confidential sessions in person or by video.
