April is National Stress Awareness Month. According to a study by The American Psychological Association, in any given month, 77% of us experience physical symptoms due to stress. (This can go way beyond headaches all the way to heart attacks.) And, while the last century has brought us many modern conveniences that are supposed to make lives easier, save time and reduce stress, the opposite is happening. A major stress for many is simply waiting, whether in traffic, on hold, in line or for their computer to boot up or catch up with them. Waiting is just one of todays facts of life thats out of our control and making us feel powerless and stressed. But help is here. Psychologist and media personality Cooper Lawrence will help us identify what stresses us out and offer technologically savvy and psychologically sound ways to eliminate them.
