Stress-less Tip 

We refer to "coping" as the way we short-circuit the stress cycle. There are 3 main coping styles. (You may fall into 1 of them or any mixture of them.) What's important is that you know yourself and figure out what works best for you when deciding how to cope with your stress.

The 3 main coping styles are:

Task-oriented: When you are comfortable analyzing the situation and "tackling" it straight on. In other words, taking action to deal directly with the situation.

Emotion-oriented: When you prefer to deal more with your feelings and find social supports. 

Distraction-oriented: When you use activities or work to take your mind off the situation.

Check here every 2 weeks for more information on stress and how to reduce it in your life.
