This book describes the Stress Management, Treatment and other Related Diseases

Stress is a part of the life every day.
It happens to you at work or at play
A little stress is good for the temperament.
It stimulates and provides excitement.

Too much stress for a long time can be harmful
The brain becomes faint and fearful
The heart beats become very fast
The breathing feels that it can not last

There is hand trembling and shaking;
There is also a sense of doom and dying
Stress is a highly treatable condition
Always think before making decision

Manage the time well and carefully
Always do work to the best of the ability
Learn to relax and how to meditate
Enjoy the life and get enough sleep

-An original poem by Kenneth Kee
