Too much stress at work may affect your job performance and overall health.

The American Psychological Association suggests how to cope with occupational stress:

• Keep a journal to track things that stressed you out, and how you dealt with them.
• When you feel stressed, minimize the effects by exercising, reading and getting plenty of sleep.
• Make sure you’re not thinking about work all the time.
• Practice relaxation techniques to help you wind down. Deep breathing, mindfulness and meditation are good examples.
• If you feel overwhelmed, talk to your supervisor. Ask about support resources to help employees cope.
