Recognizing stress in your life is the first step to managing it.
Feeling stressed lately? You’re not alone — and you’re not alone if you ignore that stress or write it off as part of “the daily grind.”

Stress can pile up quickly. Minimizing stress in your life can make it tough to recognize the true weight of the load you’re carrying.
Recognizing sources of stress in your life and talking about them with people you trust is important. It can go a long way toward helping you navigate stress more effectively.
April is Stress Awareness Month and it’s a great time to explore stress in your life. Use this month to find supportive resources and practice new ways to manage stress you can’t get rid of completely.
Read on to learn more about the different types of stress and the effects of chronic stress. Also, get tips and resources to manage ongoing stress.
