Stress is a big factor and can affect your BG numbers.
Even a little bit of stress can shoot your BG up. The best
thing you can do is to find some way to relieve your stress.
Psychologists recommend writing down your problems, a
diary to let out your anger and issues. Finding a good
friend to talk to or even trusted clergy would take some of
the burden off your shoulders. Some people find solace in
food, but unfortunately this can wreak havoc and not help
you. Although maybe a few bites of excellent chocolate may
produce the endorphins your body may be craving to
soothe your problems.
However, there are many other ways too. Exercise is
always good.Massage therapy is a very good way. The
quiet room, massage therapist and soothing music will melt
away your cares. You control the level of your stress, not
the other way around. Remember to" think things through",
try to determine the root cause of your problems and go
from there. Attitude adjustment always helps too. You might
be surprised by turning the problem into an opportunity how
the stress seems to leave your body.
There are many ways to resolve stress. Try to find a
favorite place and go there to gather your thoughts. Take a
long walk on beach or just enjoy the sunshine. Find a
hobby that frees your mind so you can think intelligently
about your problems.
Remember it is you who are ultimately in command and you
who can change your attitude. You might be surprised at
yourself in finding a hidden talent or even a brand new you.
"Remember, one day at a time for a stress free life."
