Stress Management Powerpoint Project
Transcript: Thank You! August Garner HSC 1100 Fishing Fishing is the number one stress management technique that works for me the most. Since I was young, I have always enjoyed fishing. When I get stressed or overwhelmed, I always pack up my fishing rods and tackle, and head out to a body of water to fish. Fishing helps me to clear my head and think about what is going on in my life. Fishing How To: Fish How To: Fish First, decide the location where you want to fish. Gather all supplies: Fishing rod & reel, tackle, bait, fishing line, etc. When you get prepared to go, get to the location where body of water is and do whatever you may need to do, to get the rod & reel ready to cast. I personally like to throw the fish back rather than keeping them. Spending Time with my Family When I am with my family, I don't feel stressed or alone. I know that they will always be there for me. When we all spend time together, we make sure to make memories. I enjoy all of the quality time I am able to share with my family that I love dearly.

Listening to Country Music Listening to Music Music helps me tremendously when I am feeling overwhelmed with thoughts going through my mind. I listen to music a lot when I am fishing or in the car. I enjoy listening to country music the most because I can relate to the lyrics of the songs.

Finally, enjoy the music and allow it to ease your mind or stress levels. Swimming I have always loved to swim. When I swim, my body is able to relax more, which then helps me to have a relief from stress. I also get an excerise when I swim by doing a few techniques, which is very beneficial.

A Good Amount of Sleep A Good Amount of Sleep I have always battled with having a good sleep schedule, but since I have been really trying to train my body to go to sleep at a decent time, I have noticed a huge difference as far as my stress. Not having an adequate amount of sleep can be a big cause of stress. I have been going to bed early and waking up early, and that has helped my stress a lot. How To: Get An Adequate Amount of Sleep How To: Get A Good Amount of Sleep Train your body to go to bed early and wake up earlier in the morning. Shut electronics and lights off 30 minutes before you are ready to fall asleep. Find out how much sleep is an adequate amount of sleep for your age and try to get that many hours of sleep. Try to be as comfortable as possible. Stay active enough throughout the day, so you are tired enough at night.
