Finding a retirement home is easy. We have more options today than ever before. New developments are springing up every day across the nation to meet the wants and needs of a growing retired population that is living longer, healthier, more active, and independent lifestyles.

Recently, Rush Limbaugh (of talk radio fame) reported on the newest study out of the U.K. that says work-related stress substantially increases the risk of heart attack and stroke, too.

The link between stress and ill health is so strong, in fact, that techniques for reducing stress are an integral part of the holistic healing and alternative medicine approaches to wellness. In a quest to find a simple solution to stress, many people have turned to nutritional supplements and herb combinations like Echinacea, Coenzyme Q, pycnogenol, magnesium, Vitamin C, Gingko, and prescription drugs such as Xanax, Zoloft, and Ativan. While many of these are effective in relieving the symptoms of disease caused by stress, they are not effective in relieving stress itself.  Read more…
