What are some methods for stabilizing stress hormones?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Relaxation: "stress hormones" are normal chemicals made in the body that are being produced at higher than normal levels due to a perceived stress. A brisk walk or workout is very effective at 'burning' off the stress. Some also find relief from meditation and yoga.

Play more: Kids get recess. Adults should too! make pauses in your day. Take real lunch breaks - not just eating and working through lunch. Stop and smell the roses. Smile. Also agree with dr. F. Get up and get moving. Meditation, yoga: thumbs up! here's to finding balance in our lives.
