Hey all! I hope everyone reading has had a great week and
are managing well! For this blog, I really want to pay attention to stress. As
the semester continues it is so easy to get engulfed in stress that you feel
yourself struggling- or almost drowning in some cases. And guess what, I
totally get it! I watched this awesome Ted Talk the other evening that has to
do with stress and I thought I would share it with all of you! I found it
really motivational and it helped me create a new foundation for thinking about
stress and how it affects my life. The Ted Talk itself is called “How To MakeStress Your Friend” ,but here is the link
I know what you may be thinking though - why would I listen to this? Well, the
magic is, when you are sitting there stressed and panicking but somehow end up
on my blog, give it a try to kill time and hopefully relax a little bit!
Make sure that you are also taking time for yourself. It is
necessary to provide yourself with many options throughout your day/week. I
find it helpful to spread out dedications and availability because it allows me
to dedicate specific time to “sanity." Personally, if I don’t set aside this
time, there is pretty much a zero chance that I will take the time for
leisurely activities on my own. I sometimes find myself panicking and driving
myself into the ground, so by taking the time out of my schedule for myself, it
allows me that extra flexibility that I don’t even realize I needed!
There are many ways to do this, which I will be touching on
throughout the semester! Keep checking in to read about athletic opportunities,
current situations in my life, social opportunities, and assistance (both on
and off campus).
