“Every day brings a choice: to practice stress or to practice peace.” – Joan Borysenko
It’s that time of the semester when everything starts to feel more stressful. Mid-term projects and papers, as well as exams that are all lined up on the road ahead. Here are some tips to help manage your stress during this time:
Make a list of the things you need to do and prioritize it from most important to least important.
Take a break and allow yourself space to connect with others or yourself.
Stay active by going for a short walk or bike ride. Physical activity is a great stress relief.
Have some quiet time for yourself. Practice deep breathing or journaling on your own.
Step away from screens for 15 minutes. Reduce the amount of things you see from other people online and focus on the moment you are in now.
