Stress Apps for Your Phone

Stress sells. It is certainly selling iPhone apps. The iTune store has 19 apps beginning with the word stress. Our holistic health guru Deepak Chopra, MD has his own stress app called Stress Free. NPR’s story, Therapist In Your Pocket talks about how therapists are using phone apps to help their patients in ways other procedures weren’t before the apps.

These apps take two prevalent phenomena – stress and phone apps and puts them together. These apps make being aware of stress and releasing it, fun and easy. When you have a technology assisting you, what was hard to remember and do, becomes automatic and cool.

These apps certainly beat becoming sick from stress or taking drugs to reduce stress.
