What do you get from an anxious cow?
Milkshakes!
Speaking of anxious- if you are anxious, that is a normal feeling, and we all experience it at times. Quick ways to reduce feelings of anxiety- get outside, take a walk, chew gum, eat something sour, talk to someone, big deep breaths or drink some cold water.
