			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you noticed how <em>stress</em>,<em> anxiety</em> and <em>fear</em> have gone viral? </p>
<p>Yes, I know you have, but that doesn&#8217;t mean you have to catch it. </p>
<p>In addition to a real live financial crisis, we are being fed a steady diet of doom and gloom that keeps magnifying the problem. It&#8217;s something akin to sitting in an echo chamber where all you hear is &#8220;Be afraid, be very afraid&#8221; over and over and over again.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not good for the nervous system. It&#8217;s not good for anyone&#8217;s physical health. And it doesn&#8217;t do much for our emotional lives as well.</p>
<p>The worst part is that when we are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety and fear, we don&#8217;t think clearly. That means that we are less able to make good choices in the face of real life problems.</p>
<p>Mastering stress, anxiety and fear is what the <strong>Stress Reducer</strong> Blog is all about. That doesn&#8217;t mean beating it into submission. It does mean taking steps to diminish it&#8217;s effects so you can make good decisions for you and your family. </p>
<p>I know lots about <a href="http://stressreducerblog.com/about">stress, anxiety and fear</a>, but I communicate it best in dialogue. So let me know what&#8217;s on your mind. Let me know what you need right now to reduce your level of stress and meet the current challenges in your life. I would love to hear from you, and I would love to help.</p>
