One of the functions of blood flow is to maintain the temperature of the body. Tension created by Stress can limit the circulation in the body. By pressing on the temperature-sensitive square of the Stressometer, you can start to develop an awareness of how much tension you are holding in your body. As you develop this awareness, you can then start to take the actions (such as deep breathing) that will alleviate the tension.

 

Over time you can create a new habit that will keep you on an even-keel a majority of the time. Feeling Stress and Tension Occasionally is not nearly as detrimental as being stressed Most of the time.
