I remember the first time I had a difficult exam in college, and the stress I felt during and after the exam was horrible.

I remember thinking that all I wanted to do is drive away from the school, and just think to myself.

As I have learned one of the greatest ways to reduce stress for me personally is to just drive for a little bit, and think.

By doing this I allow myself time to ponder about other things going on in my life, and this tends to put me in a better mood.

I would like to share some tips on how drivers can use driving to relieve stress, what causes of stress, and if stress is really a good or

bad thing.

Managing your stress levels can be very important to your health.

There are many different way to relieve your stress.

For me it is driving my car just cruising, but for some others it could be a meditation or even something physical like hitting a punching

bag.

You can also try to write the things that are bothering you and how they make you feel.

This helps you find out what is causing your trigger and how much stress you are feeling.

After you know, you can find better ways to cope.

You can also just let your emotions out like laughing, crying, or just talking.

This is probably the most common way to help you feel better.

There are many things that can cause stress and it is different for every person.

For some people driving can actually cause stress.

There are people out there that just absolutely hate driving not matter how short the drive is.

Probably the thing that causes stress the most for people is work.

Not being happy or content with your job, having more work than you can handle, or maybe just having a bad manager or boss that except you to do more than handle or do not give you any say in

anything.

Stress is probably worse than you think it is.

Stress can actually cause your emotions to be difficult to control.

It can also hurt your health in many different ways.

You love life could also be affected as well because studies have shown that stress can lead to impotency in men while causing

changes to children in pregnant women.

However, with this knowledge you should have a couple more tools in handling stress.
