Handling Stress Project

TASK:​ Your task is to create a personal stress

strategies poster/infographic, digitally or hand
written. This poster/infographic will outline some key
de-stressing strategies that you can personally use.
You must research 5 different ways to reduce stress. You
need to find why they work and a picture to represent the
strategy. These strategies must be ones that can directly
affect you. For each strategy you will need to give an
example how this can be used in your life.
You must include:
● 5 different strategies for reducing stress
● An explanation of each strategy -
○ Answer questions such as: What is the strategy? What should you do? When
should you perform the task? How is the strategy performed?
● Why each individual strategy works
○ Example: Chewing gum gives people a task to complete as they try to ignore
some of the stressful aspects of the other task at hand. It also increases blood
flow to the brain.
● An example of when/how you could implement this into your life
Example: Chewing Gum has been proven to reduce stress. An example of using
this strategy in your life would mean you chew gum before every exam.
● A picture to represent the strategy
