Stress, worry, over-work and feeling unrecognised and unacknowledged aren't just an unpleasant side-effect of an economy in recession. As Wayne hears this week from cardiologist Dr John Kennedy, they can cause serious damage to your health, too.

Dr Kennedy is author of The 15 Minute Heart Cure and medical director of preventive cardiology and wellness at Marina Del Rey Hospital. He explains to Wayne just how work stress effects cardiovascular health and what you can use to tackle it, notably with a simple technique called " B-R-E-A-T-H" - Begin, Relax, Envision, Apply, Treat, Heal.

The intro music to the Working Week is "The Warrior" by The EMP Project, used with permission of Blue Canoe Records.
