Health Tip: Check Stress at the Office

(HealthDay News) -- Your work environment may be stressful enough without adding your frustration to the mix.

The American Council on Exercise says you can help improve your work environment by:

• Being kind to your coworkers.
• Communicating honestly and clearly with your colleagues and addressing any problems head-on, rather than feeling frustrated.
• Focusing on positive opportunities rather than on disappointing things that affect you.
• Getting regular exercise, plenty of sleep and eating well.
• Looking for a new job if your work environment is not healthy and can't be changed.
