It's amazing, in a sometimes horribly inconvenient way, that our bodies are so sensitive to parts of our lives we think are under control. I think maybe my body has saved me from losing my mind by forcing me to sit still for a day or two with whatever ailment it can.
As for stress relief, try this. Think, with a lot of awareness, a sentence about things you do. "I am drinking a glass of cranberry juice and it's delicious." "I am taping this box shut and it's one less I have to pack." Just something small and optimistic to keep you in the moment, and from thinking of 12 things at once.
Good luck!
