Unwind the Mind

We live in a fast-paced world. From traffic jams to deadlines to paying bills, stress is experienced on some level by almost everyone.
Since avoiding stress and anxiety altogether is virtually impossible, it is important that we respond in the healthiest and most productive way.

Stressful situation 
               Anxiety disorders, as a group, are the most common mental illness in America. More than 19 million American adults are affected each year and even more experience everyday stress. Stress can cause chemical changes in the body that have negative effects on both mental and physical health. Furthermore, stress has been implicated in causing a deficient immune system because of the nature of the body's response. During a stressful situation, the body signals the release of stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol into the bloodstream. These hormones speed up heart rate, making the heart work too hard. Muscles tighten, blood pressure increases, and brain activity speeds up as well. Other physiological symptoms of stress can include hyperventilation, dizziness, digestive disorders, and headaches.

Liverpool Football Club


               Liverpool Football Club is an English Premier League football club based in Liverpool, Merseyside. Liverpool has won 18 League titles, the second most in English football, as well as seven FA Cups and a record eight League Cups. Liverpool has also won more European titles than any other English club, with five European Cups, three UEFA Cups and three UEFA Super Cups.

             Liverpool was founded in 1892 and admitted into the Football League the following year. The club has played at its home ground, Anfield, since its founding, and the team has played in an all-red home strip since 1964. The most successful period in Liverpool's history was the 1970s and '80s, when the club won numerous honours both domestically and in Europe.

             The club's supporters have been involved in two major tragedies. The first was the Heysel Stadium disaster in 1985, in which charging Liverpool fans caused a wall to collapse, killing 39 Juventus supporters. In the 1989 Hillsborough disaster, 96 Liverpool supporters lost their lives due to a crush against perimeter fencing.
Liverpool has long-standing rivalries with city neighbours Everton and with Manchester United. The club's anthem is "You'll Never Walk Alone".

               Liverpool's first trophy was the Lancashire League, which it won in the club's first season. In 1901, the club won its first League title, while its first success in the FA Cup was in 1965. In terms of the number of trophies won, Liverpool's most successful decade was the 1980s, when the club won six League titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups, five Charity Shields (one shared) and two European Cups. Liverpool has won the English League Championship eighteen times, the FA Cup seven times and the League Cup a record eight times. The club achieved a League and FA Cup "double" in 1986 and won the League and European Cup double both in 1977 and in 1984. Liverpool also won the League Cup in 1984 to complete a treble, a feat repeated (albeit with different trophies) in 2001, when the club won the FA Cup, League Cup and UEFA Cup.

               Liverpool has one of the best records in the history of top-level football. The club has accumulated more top-flight wins than any other English team.  Liverpool also has the second-highest average league finishing position for the period 1900–1999, with an average league placing of 8.7. Liverpool has won the European Cup, Europe's premier club competition, five times, an English record and only surpassed by Real Madrid and A.C. Milan. Liverpool's fifth European Cup win, in 2005, meant that the club was awarded the trophy permanently and was also awarded a multiple-winner badge. Liverpool has won the UEFA Cup, Europe's secondary club competition, three times, a record the club shares with Juventus and Internazionale.
