Do you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who lives within you...you are not your own, you were bought with a price....so then, honor God and bring glory to Him in your body.

Our bodies are a temple of God and we should do our best to take care of them, not just physically, but also mentally. In today's world many people deal with stress. God created us to withstand normal amounts of stress within reasonable limits. Many stressful situations are unavoidable, but too often we create extra added stress in our life. Working too hard or too long, not getting enough sleep, not eating right, or not knowing when to say no when our plate is already full of too many activities. In order for us to be at our best it is so important to not cause unneeded stress in our life and have balance to take care of ourselves. If we keep adding on mental and emotional stress before long we are in trouble. God does not want us to live this way, so remember that part of protecting your body and honoring it as temple of God, by making sure you are also doing this mentally. If you struggle with this, ask God to help you prioritize things in your life so you can create a sense of balance. Take care of yourself and give yourself rest.
