Warren E. Tolman - Holland & Knight LLP
"My strategy for relieving stress on a business trip is the same as relieving stress in the hectic day to day world in which we live: Exercise!  Whether it be going for a swim, a jog around a new city, working out in a fitness center or whatever, exercising is a great way to unwind from a trip and clear your mind.  And that dessert at dinner will taste better, too!"

Christopher J. Panos - Craig and Macauley
"My wife will tell you that I relieve stress (the stress of having three-and-a-half year old twins at home) by going on business trips!  Actually, I try to pack workout clothes for all trips and fit in an hour at the gym or a good walk.  Last month, I was in San Francisco for several days of meetings.  My Blackberry and I were able to take an early morning walk from South of Market over Knob Hill to Fisherman's Wharf and back.  Good start for a long day." 

Martha J. Koster - Mintz Levin Cohn Ferris Glovsky and Popeo P.C.
"My regular stress-reliever is exercise.  When traveling, I look for hotels with well-equipped fitness centers and try to squeeze in an hour, even if it's in the evening, to work out.  If all else fails, a good walk or a few exercises in the hotel room provide some relief."

Raymond M. Kwasnick - Goulston & Storrs - A Professional Corporation
"My strategy for dealing with stress on the road involves keeping to my usual routine, as much possible.  I try to start the day in the gym and to answer overnight e-mails and voice mails before I dive into the day.  Of course, it helps to have a great support team back in the office to cover emergencies which arise while I am away."   

Mark N. Berman, Nixon Peabody LLP
"I try to visit with an old friend or take in an historic venue. Failing that, I'll try a long walk during which I'll smoke a good cigar."
