Dialogue:
Coping with Stress



Erin: Dad! What on earth are you doing?

Dad: I’m meditating.

Erin: All right. Who are you and what have you done with my dad?

Dad: No, I’m serious. I’m doing yoga. It helps me relax.

Erin: When did you start doing that?

Dad: Last week. I’ve been feeling stressed out and my blood pressure is really high. So I went to the doctor.

Erin: I see. And what did the doctor say?

Dad: The doctor told me that if I didn’t manage my stress levels, I could suffer some serious health consequences.

Erin: Like what?

Dad: Depression, anxiety, heart disease…you name it.

Erin: So what are you going to do?

Dad: I’ve made some lifestyle changes: I’m exercising, eating healthier, trying to be more sociable, and finding time to relax.
