A strategy I use is scheduling my stress. I allow myself to feel stressed and then I manage it by either completing the task or breaking down the steps. I tend to follow through with the task if I leave enough time for sleep or fun activities afterward. ]]> 2021-09-21 19:29:38 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758236818 rebekahgonzales https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758320938 Current stress-management strategies I have been using are regular yoga practice, scheduling, and the use of timers. On busy days, I make a point to squeeze in a 20-30 minute yoga or meditation practice before class/homework/or other responsibilities. This allows me to unwind from my workday and gets me prepared to shift into my next activities. Using a 24-hour planner, I fill in my weekly schedule and make sure to incorporate workouts, homework, hanging out with friends, etc. This not only keeps me from procrastinating assignments, but it also ensures that I am taking time for myself and others. I have recently implemented the use of a timer to notify me when I am done or can transition into my next activity. This keeps me from hyper-focusing/over-obsessing over projects (I used to sit for 4+ hours trying to get things done all at once. Not great for my stress/anxiety!) ]]> 2021-09-21 20:15:32 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758320938 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758500698 I manage stress a few different ways that I model for my children. I demonstrate big deep breaths or counting from one to ten. If my mind is constantly filled with thoughts and I have protected time for myself, I will watch one of my old favorite shows on my IPAD called PSYCH. I hardly ever watch tv, so it is a real treat if I get to watch an episode. ]]> 2021-09-21 22:28:57 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758500698 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758564198 Since I am a mom of two young children, I usually model for them deep breaths and now use that for myself. I have been trying to take some time for myself because it seems that I always have something to do. I am trying to practice self-care and leave at least thirty minutes to do something I enjoy doing and regroup. ]]> 2021-09-21 23:30:15 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758564198 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758574375 My "go-to" strategy for stress management is music. I love music, so whether I am listening to film soundtracks or performing, music is a way to get rid of stress and express how I am feeling. If that does not work, then I do the regular deep breathing exercises and stretching. ]]> 2021-09-21 23:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1758574375 amanda_jimenez2 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1759035024 My "go-to" strategy for stress management at home is going outside. Taking a quick break, enjoying the weather, relaxing on the patio. I love to listen to music and turn on the patio lights at night. At work, my "go-to" strategy for stress management is to take a quick break, regroup, focus, turn on some clam music, and jump back in! :)]]> 2021-09-22 04:40:47 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1759035024 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1760907720 My go to for stress management is taking long walks in the cool evenings. I might have to wait a little bit longer to do that with the weather that we are having. You can work a lot of things out and process a lot of information when you walk for an hour. During the warmer weather I really like taking a dip in a swimming pool and float around with my eyes closed under water occasionally coming up for air as needed. I really find those techniques relaxing. ]]> 2021-09-22 18:37:14 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1760907720 marielcastillo3 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761324909 My "go-to" strategy for stress management is watching a comfort movie or a television show. I usually watch a show or a movie that I have previously watched because I know what is going to happen. I also enjoy watching funny videos on Tik Tok or Youtube to help me destress and regroup.]]> 2021-09-22 23:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761324909 austin_ceniceros_uribe https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761334465 My "go-to" strategy for managing my stress is getting outdoors. Going for hikes, fishing, and just being outdoors in general always helps me relax, reset and then get ready to tackle the next task that I have on my to do list. ]]> 2021-09-22 23:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761334465 alexisreyes21 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761462241 Hi everyone! my "go-to" strategy for stress management is to turn on a candle at home (if I am home) and listen to jazz music. Sometimes when I feel stressed in the car I will completely turn off the music and be in silence. I have found that sometimes music is a bit of a sensory overload for me when I am feeling too stressed/anxious/overwhelmed. I also have the "CALM" app where I can listen to all the relaxing music.]]> 2021-09-23 00:41:38 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761462241 calvinramirez1 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761687824 My "go-to" strategy for stress management is spending time with my animals. My cat, Marina, is my fluffy princess and she always mellows me out when I play with/pet her. Some studies even say owning a cat can reduce your risk of having a heart attack. ]]> 2021-09-23 02:23:37 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1761687824 brittanydawn8 https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1766846473 My "go-to" strategy for stress management is going to the beach and listening to the waves. I am lucky enough to live 10 minutes from the beach so I can easily go whenever. Sometimes I like to bring a book. The sound of the waves is soothing and can turn a stressful moment into a relaxing moment.]]> 2021-09-25 02:28:54 UTC https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1766846473 sara_can https://padlet.com/myala/c36vl13xw6kd3640/wish/1777023819 My "go-to" strategy for stress management is spending time with my corgi.
