School can be overwhelming, but you’re not alone. Here’s how to manage stress and find balance.
Stress can show up as headaches, trouble sleeping, irritability, or feeling overwhelmed. If you notice these signs, it’s time to take action.
Use a planner or app to track assignments and deadlines. Break big tasks into smaller steps and tackle them one at a time.
Short breaks during study sessions help your brain recharge. Try the Pomodoro technique: 25 minutes of work, 5 minutes of rest.
Eat well, get enough sleep, and move your body. Even a short walk or stretching can help reduce stress.
Talk to friends, family, or a counselor if you’re feeling overwhelmed. You’re not alone, and asking for help is a sign of strength.
Deep breathing, meditation, or simply focusing on the present moment can calm your mind. Try apps like Headspace or Calm for guided exercises.
Everyone feels stressed sometimes. What matters is how you respond. Be kind to yourself and celebrate small victories!
