In today’s fast-moving world, stress has become part of life and affects people of all ages. While stress is often seen as a personal issue, its negative impacts can ripple and affect relationships and families.
Below, we highlight long-term and effective strategies for reducing stress for those you care about. Let’s dive in.

Some hormones like endocannabinoids can give you a euphoric feeling, also called runner high, which some people experience after running.
