You will find stress natural remedies in this article. Stress is the body’s response to unreleased emotional tension, along with the inability to create positive energy. Are you having enough fun? Are you laughing enough to know that most problems are short-term and most everything has a solution? Drama gathers stress and must be drained away with creative endeavors without perfectionism and competition. Aerobic exercise also releases stress, especially when done consistently.

Becoming numb to problems can also make them worse as there is little incentive for counseling or other therapies. Modern medicine puts a band aid on symptoms so that a person can “get on with life.” Who needs to actually resolve their problems any way?

Then there are the issues of dependency, toxicity and other side effects of the medications.
One natural perspective for stress is replacing pent up emotions with loving, creative, non-competitive releases. Do the basics, like choosing a moderate lifestyle where work and play are in balance. It is also sleeping eight hours a night, and enjoying your work and family. It also includes a diet rich in vitamins, nutrients and anti-oxidants. Avoid tobacco, alcoholic, coffee, black tea, soda, and fast food.
Natural supplements for stress include a good B-Complex at 100-200 mg per day for nutritional support. Magnesium and calcium help calm nerves and muscles.
