So my inability to relax basically is the culprit?
If that's the case, my muscles must hold tons of tension under stress.
And I wonder if it's any coincidence that I feel much more relaxed after I go to the gym.
Is diaphramic breathing the trick? Any others?
I have to get this under control because my work life is getting increasingly more stressful as I take on more responsibility. I'm fearful of moving up the ladder because it may do me in.
