Stress Awareness Day Web-Watch.

Alice's Autumn Assortment

As it's a special day, I've pulled together some relevant and usable sites to help put the 'E' into StrEss AwarEness day. From stress management, to relaxing music and images, from sources of support, to how to feel happier, from information and updates about stress, to jumping off points for further research into the subject. I do hope you find something you like, even the sticky toffees!
