National Stress Awareness Day

National Stress Awareness Day (NSAD) takes place on Wednesday 4th November 2009. It is organised by the International Stress Management Association (ISMA UK).The aim of this registered charity is to advance the education of the public in the field of biological stress. The purpose of ISMA UK is to develop an understanding of stress and to open access to coping strategies and sources of help for individuals and organisations.
The theme for this year's NSAD campaign is 'Stressing the Positives'. There are many ways to cope with and reduce stress. Prevention is better than a cure, but on many occasions stress can creep up on you without you fully realising it. One way to cope with stress is to find a way to release it. Here at findmeagift.com we have many gifts and gadgets that can help you relieve any built up tension and put a smile back on your face.
