These days, stress can be triggered at any moment and we could all use a method (or two) to manage the pressures that come our way.
While stress can come in many forms, including ones that may or may not be within our control, the more in tune we are with the physical, mental, and emotional responses of our body, the better we can manage challenging life moments when they arrive.
Though there are many ways to reduce stress in your life, from adopting a self-care routine to decreasing screen time, and even practicing mindful meditation, it’s nice to have peace in your pocket with powerful supplements, powders and chews. That’s why we’ve put together a list of the best stress aids to balance your mind and mood.
