                         Stress Management Techniques


                 Whether you are facing good stress or bad stress, it is important to learn some stress management techniques to
                 minimise the negative impact on mind and body.

                 Some of the good stress management techniques are:
                 Time Management


                 When you feel that there is too much to do and not enough time then,
                 you start getting panic attacks, lose focus and make errors in your work.
                 Good Time Management techniques will help you prioritise your task and
                 manage your commitments. Make a list of the work in terms of urgent,
                 important, and not important. This will put you in control of your situation
                 and help you increase your productivity.

                 In academic life, keeping your notes organised, finishing assignments on time, and tracking deadlines can help
                 reduce stress.


                                                     Physical Exercise and Fresh Air


                                                     Physical Exercise in the fresh air increases the flow of blood and oxygen
                                                     in the  body.  This will help in releasing  good  hormones, and  will make
                                                     a healthy mind and body. It can be in the form of going out for a walk,
                                                     being physically active at home by helping with household chores, walking
                                                     uphill, jogging, or running, aerobics, etc.





                 Meditation


                 Meditation is an age-old practice that produces a deep state of relaxation
                 and helps you focus on one thought and clear the others. It works to reverse
                 the effects of stress by providing rejuvenation and repair of the mind and
                 body. Thus, preventing further damage from the physical effects of stress.
