Jamie’s column offers valuable insights on managing stress for individuals with Parkinson’s disease and their caregivers. Her personal experience adds authenticity to the suggestions. To complement her list, I’d recommend incorporating regular physical activity, like the wall ball workout mentioned in the article at https://betterme.world/articles/wall-ball-workout/. Exercise can significantly reduce stress and improve overall well-being for both patients and caregivers. It’s a powerful tool often underestimated in stress management.

Kenneth, I couldn’t agree more! Being active is one of my go-to stress relievers. It doesn’t always have to be strenuous or time consuming activity either, as you’ve highlighted in your post. Thanks for this important reminder about the stress-relieving benefits of moving one’s body. 🙂
