Welcome back! A great way to deal with stress is a two week vacation! So now that you are all relaxed, we will ramp up the stress with the reminder that finals are just two weeks away. We have already started the process of dealing with stress by identifying what it is that causes us stress. Some things we have control over and can eliminate them from our lives, but some, like school, we have to deal with. Below are some ways of dealing with stress. The idea is that you take some time to free your mind from the things that are causing you stress, so that you can than go at them with a fresh perspective. For your first blog of 2010. Let me know me know which of the ways of dealing with stress below would work for you. if none of them sound like the would help you relax, let me know something that you could do to free your mind and relax.
You knew I would have to start with exercise. We all know excercise makes us feel better, but how often do we really do it when we most need to? Excercise releases tension and actually energizes us. Some other examples of healthy responses to stress are playing music, expressive arts, dance, self-defense courses, running, taking time out, 10 deep breaths, a long bath, a good book. These are all ways to beat stress and win back our quality of life.
Things that would help me would be self-defense courses, a long bath, 10 deep breaths and a good book.
