    Stress Management

    Stress is defined as a feeling of emotional or physical tension that can be caused by both positive and negative situations. While small amounts of stress can be motivating, too much stress that feels uncontrolled can negatively impact physical and mental health as well as relationships. Stress is commonly caused by pent-up negative emotions that are suppressed instead of expressed. For children, stress is often experienced when they cannot cope with threatening, difficult or painful situations such as changes in their bodies, school demands, social problems, family changes, illness or unsafe environments.

    STRESS MANAGEMENT

    STRESS MANAGEMENT
     Having a healthy mind is just as important as having
    a physically fit body. Just as a person needs to
    exercise to have a healthy body, one must also have a
    routine to maintain a positive mental health.
    What is stress?
     “...emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension.”
     Stress is a common feeling we get when we feel under pressure,
    overwhelmed or unable to cope. Small amounts of stress can be good for us
    and motivate us to achieve goals like taking an exam or giving a speech. But
    too much of it, especially when it feels out of control, can negatively impact
    our mood, physical and mental well-being and relationships.
    What is stress?
     A practical way of defining stress is the feeling one gets from prolonged,
    pent-up emotions. If the emotions you experience are pleasant and desirable
    – joy, elation, ecstasy, delight – you usually feel free to let them show. They
    are not suppressed. Therefore; positive emotions do not usually cause stress.
    Negative emotions, on the other hand, are more often held inside. They are
    hidden. You suffer quietly and you experience stress. Do not confuse positive
    situations with positive emotions. A wedding, for example, is a positive
    situation that often brings about the negative emotions of anxiety and
    tension. So stress can exist in great situations.
    What causes stress?
     Children don’t always experience stress the way adults do. Whereas work-related stress is common among
    adults, most children experience stress when they cannot cope with threatening, difficult or painful
    situations. These include:

     Negative thoughts or feelings about themselves


     Changes in their bodies like the beginning of puberty
     The demands of school like exams and more homework as they get older
     Problems with friends at school and socializing
     Big changes like moving homes, changing schools or separation of parents
     Chronic illness, financial problems in the family or the death of a loved one
     Unsafe environments at home or in the neighbourhood.
