HowToRelieveStressNaturally.com uses four primary modalities or methods for approaching stress management: HRV Biofeedback, Kundalini yoga, Energy Medicine and Nutritionals. Each modality approaches stress management from a unique yet coherent perspective to give you options and new directions for managing your stress, high-functioning anxiety, and stress-related depression.
