I too have a zen time and spot then I schedule it in everyday.
Jeanne, I like that saying a lot and it really puts things into perspective! We can't stress over minor things. So important to remind ourselves of that.

To cope with stress, I have recently join the gym and changed my eatting habits. This is working so far!!!
I have tired different ways to reduce my stree levels. I have found some that are really helpful.
I am eating healthier and exercising more to decrease my stress level. I'm taking more time out to keep me healthy.
In addition to reducing and eliminating stress, I put time aside everyday to worry. If something troubles me I use the time I set aside to think about it that way it never enters my productive time.
Kristen, Those both sound like productive coping mechanisms. I am glad to hear they are working so well for you. I am curious to learn about the exercises that are working best for you.

Sharing my thoughts with co workers helps a lot.
