Stress actually makes you dumber. Bring on the kittens (or at least Bob Newhart)!

It's not even hump day yet. How is that possible?...

All of us are stressed out. Week in and week out. That's just the way it goes. And studies show it's actually making us dumber -- "because the brain's capacity to think is fractured," says Rajita Sinha, who heads Yale University's Stress Center.

But you can do something about your stress. You can try yoga or meditation. Or ... you can step into a big glass box. Soul Pancake calls this last option Kitten Therapy, and it clearly works. As one patient put it: "You can't be stressed after sitting in a box full of kittens." Need proof? Watch below:

Of course, if you're afraid of "anything boxy," you will probably need old-school professional therapy. But don't worry. Bob Newhart will fix you up in five minutes -- and he'll only charge you five dollars.
