Coping with Stress There are lots of ways to reduce stress:
Talk about it – Your listeners can be friends, family, teachers or others. Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, it’s a sign of maturity and strength.
Daily relaxation – Make sure you spend some time each day doing things that relax you and take your mind off your studies.
Exercise – Exercise is a great way to clear the mind and relaxes your muscles.
Positive thinking – Thinking you may fail makes you worry more and makes you less enthusiastic about working hard.
Eat and drink well – Eating the right foods will reduce overall stress and make you feel good about yourself. Avoid things with added sugar and try to eat a balanced diet with enough protein and savoury carbohydrates. E.g. eggs, yoghurt, fruit, veg, rice, potatoes, fish.
Breathing techniques – Breathing techniques can help you relax. Sit comfortable and close your eyes. Breathe slowly through your nose and count to ten. Hold this breath while you count to ten again. Now breath out slowly, counting to ten once more. Repeat this.
Sleep – Get plenty of rest. Sleep affects concentration so if you have enough sleep, you won’t have to struggle so hard to focus.
