From Stress To Strength: Taking Charge
Contrary to popular belief, stress is not always negative. Eustress or positive stress can motivate us and optimize our performance. Eustress looks at our coping skills, it's exciting and short-term. The kind of stress we've all experienced when planning a vacation/birthday party/wedding or learning a new hobby, buying a new car, etc.

Anxiety and stress often accompany muscle tension. In PMR we learn to release this muscle tension.
Meditation:
A solid body of research shows that meditation can reduce psychological stress and anxiety, significantly promoting good health.
Relaxation response:

Cognitive behavior therapy:
