Health Tip: Stress Can Make You Clumsy
(HealthDayNews) -- Are you a klutz who's constantly banging into tables, knocking over glasses or tripping over chair legs?
According to Toronto's Sunnybrook and Women's College Health Science Center, stress and a killer schedule may be to blame. If you're uptight, your muscles tense up and lead to clumsy movements.
Here's what you can do to loosen up:
- Make a daily "to do" list. If it seems too full, cross off some items.
- Practice deep breathing or yoga stretches to help slow you down.
- Forget multitasking. Finish your snack, for example, before you drive or talk on your cell phone.
