Relaxation can lead to better cancer outcomes

A cancer diagnosis, cancer treatments and cancer caregiving can all be among the most stressful times in a person’s life. That stress, according to experts at the Mayo Clinic, can have impacts on your body, your mood and your behavior. Some of the impacts include headaches, fatigue, irritability, depression and anxiety, drug or alcohol abuse, angry outbursts and over- or under-eating, to name a few.

And we said that. Out loud.
