Diabetes Prevention Class #9: Manage Stress

I will say that this sabbatical has been pretty good for stress management.  I mean, except for the part where my kids are driving me crazy.  BUT, I'm not sleep-deprived, and I'm taking care of myself.  Those are all good things! 

Today, our lifestyle coach had a diffuser going when we entered.  It was amazing how that peppermint combination smell just made me take deeper breaths!  She also had some calming music.  At the end of the class she took us through a breathing exercise that was extremely calming.  Yes, this was very good.

I tend to carry stress in my shoulders, neck, and in my eating habits, so I loved that this lesson was a part of the overall scope and sequence of the course.  So good!
