It's part of the human experience to feel stressed, to get overwhelmed, to feel tossed about by how much there is to do...and it never ends.

While we can't get rid of the stress, nor would we want a life that is completely stress-free, we CAN change how we relate to stress. We can change how we move through the day to increase our capability, the trust we have to get through challenging times, and maybe to even grow and expand unique qualities as a result of stressful experiences.
