Love this... if you notice that your students are stressed, ask them to stand up in class and stretch or to do 15 jumping jacks in place. Ask your students to do a breathing exercise before big exams are distributed. Ask your students to get on an exercise schedule and to report to the class how they feel after staying on schedule each week. Ask your students to keep a sleep journal to record how many hours they sleep and how tired they feel the next day. By teaching your students about healthy coping mechanisms, you can help them more effectively deal with the stressors in their lives.

learned the different coping methods for dealing with stress. 

I understand to make more time to move and exercise and always have someone in your life to just listen to you.

 

Incorporating the coping mechanisms in my daily life will help better deal with the stressors of life.

We must take care or ourself and to reduce or eliminate as much stress as possible from our lives.  As stated, even if it is only 10 -15 minutes a day to do some type of exercise.

 

I had heard but did not realize that the majority of school nurse visits made by students are due to underlying stress.  That really is sad.

In this module, I learned about effective time and stress management strategies to improve my productivity and quality of life, providing me with more time and energy to be a good instructor.  The suggestions for healthy coping mechanisms are all helpful and easy to incorporate, especially sharing, breathing, stretching, and getting adequate sleep.  If I re-conceive exercise to be a 15-minute walk, instead of something extra that I have to schedule into an already bust day, I think I can easily incorporate that coping strategy into my day, also.

I saw things I can use to reduce stress in my life. 

Overeating as well as not eating enough are unhealthy coping mechanisms that people have in order to live with stressors. These unhealthy coping mechanisms can often have negative consequences.

Healthier life choices can help me to eliminate stressors.  Standing up for myself and working within my own expectations will be the key to success for me.

 

Talking to others like a pastor or cowoker or even a neighb can help to reduce stress.

Stress can cause physical pain and also can elimated through a process of decisision making. 

For me, I like to go for a run and breathing excersies to reduce stress. 

Help others who may be stressed around you to reduce their stress level will decrease stress in your life.

Effective communications are important for reduction of stress.

 

I am pretty much attached to my devices except the weekends. I find that helps with work-related stress. I can do better by prioritizing.

 

75 to 90 percent of student visits to doctor or health office are stress related

Students need assistance with learning how to cope with stress too.

There are coping mechanisms I can use to eliminate stressors I am dealing with. 

Five coping mechanisms that were provided were: sharing, exercise, breathing, stretching, and getting enough sleep.
