 | from Elizabeth Scott, M.S.
When people think of stress management, getting enough sleep and honing conflict resolution skills aren't usually the first techniques that come to mind. However, eliminating sleep saboteurs like conflict or caffeine can bring better sleep which can reduce overall stress, sometimes to surprising degree. This newsletter brings information on how to eliminate conflict and other obstacles to a good night's sleep, so you can have less stressed days. As usual, scrolling down will lead you to Reader Response articles and an extra, free tool. Enjoy the rest of your week! -Elizabeth
