Developing A Stress Management Plan

Picture
Following is a 10-point plan to help you manage stress.  All of these ideas can lower stress without doing any harm. None are quick fixes, but they will lead you toward a healthy and successful life. The plan is divided into 4 parts.​
  • Tackling the problem
  • Taking care of my body
  • Dealing with emotions
  • Making the world better
When you read over the plan, you’ll notice that you can come up with a bunch of ideas for each point. PLEASE don’t think you should try them all. This plan is supposed to help you reduce stress, not give you more. Try out some ideas, then stick to one or two ideas for each point.
PART I: Tackling the Problem
PART II: Taking Care of Your Body
PART III: Dealing With Emotions
PART IV: Contribute
PART V: Stress Plan Template
