Did you know that April is Stress Awareness Month? If you’re like me, you might not have even known there was such a thing! Well there is! And here I am telling you to be aware of your stress. This month has been FULL of stress for me. In in the process of moving cross country, helping my sister with her wedding, an doing all of the other million things that any moms do. That has left me more than a little aware of my stress… and the aches and pains that go along with it? UGH! That’s where Carex comes in. They have a complete line of products to help you ease the aches and pains that come with too much stress.
I have a pretty decent history with muscle tension and headaches, so when the stress level goes up, the muscle tension and headaches go up too. I was lucky enough to have my Carex stress care package ready and waiting. In the midst of the boxes, trash, piled up stuff, and utter chaos, I took a little break with my Bed Buddy®: Plush ThermaTherapy® All-Over Comfort Pack. I’ve had a similar product in the past and love them both! It was just what I needed. Taking a minute to just breathe was perfect at such a crazy time.
I also have a Bed Buddy®: Hot/Cold Pack and a Thera-Med®: Sinus Headache Cold Pack. The Hot/Cold Pack is super easy to use. I love the size, shape, and handles on the ends. It makes placing the pack super easy, something I’ve had trouble with using other ice packs. I honestly have to say that I haven’t used the Sinus Cold Pack yet, but can imagine it will come in handy soon. Even if only for the puffy bags building up under my eyes!
I’ve heard that too much stress can be extremely harmful to the body. I know that April is almost over, but really take some time to examine your life and become aware of how much stress you’re dealing with on a regular basis. Breathe…. slowly… and deeply. Just take a minute… and breathe.
