Stress is a manageable fact of life, and we've got the cure for your loopy brain waves.

So, when back-to-school time comes around, what's your stress style? Most people fall into one of three camps:

1. Anxious Adult Student or Lifelong Learner - With so many conflicting priorities and obligations, the key to your success is focus. Prescription: Fair-trade organic coffees and teas, yoga, and an electronic organizer.

2. Nervous Parent - Are you the one with separation anxiety? Not ready to let the little tyke out of your sight? Prescription: Pack a lunch box full of nutritious snacks from your CSA, squeeze a buckwheat pillow and breathe deeply. It's time to relax and let go.

3. Partying Parent - Woo hoo! After a summer of non-stop activity, having kids out of your hair is cause for celebration! Now you can entertain yourself and your friends. Prescription: An organic Bing Cherry Amaretto Jubilee. Make it a double.
