Ideally, stress management needs to begin when we're young so that we don't have battered, scarred trunks when we reach mid life and beyond. But, the reality is, most of us never consider stress as damaging... until it becomes too obvious and unmanageable. The good news about our amazing bodies is that once we identify the stressors and make some definite life style changes, we can often reverse a lot of the damage.
