Health Tips
Reduce negative stress 26 therapeutic ways
By PEGGY C. PHILPOT
Special to The Battalion
Many students at A&M have
recently experienced stress dur
ing the week of finals.
To handle the problems asso
ciated with a busy summer
schedule and upcoming finals,
students should first identify
what causes the stress, decide if it
is good or bad, then reduce it.
Stress can be caused by happy
events, such as a new relation
ship or a vacation, as well as un
happy ones such as final exams
or bounced checks. The accumu
lation of minor hassles, such as
long lines and wrong numbers,
can be stressful.
A small amount of stress in
life may help some students ac
complish their goals. For in
stance, if a student received an A
on their last exam they will have
positive stress to help them study
for their next exam. The positive
stress may actually improve the
student's chances of receiving an
other good grade. Negative
stress, howeVer, focuses the stu
dent's thoughts only on bad oc
currences, such as a failing grade,
and does not allow them to con
centrate properly for their next
exam, thereby leading them clos
er to their failure.
When allowed to develop,
stress may gradually lead to
chronic headaches, high blood
pressure, backaches, loss of ap
petite, constant fatigue, ulcers
and depression. In fact, some
physicians believe that 90 percent
of all illnesses are stress-related.
Stress is an everyday fact of
life. Students can't avoid it, but
they can deal with it.
The Health Center offers sev
eral tips to avoid stress. Students
should participate in activities
such as taking walks, calling par
ents, taking a five minute break,
taking a hot tub break, hugging
someone, getting a quick mas
sage, talking about it, watching a
few cartoons, breathing deeply,
smiling at a stranger, cry, doing a
crossword puzzle, eating a
healthy meal, taking a quick nap,
going for a swim, finding a quiet
place to be alone, taking a hot
bath, thinking about a far off
place, going for a bike ride, try
ing rollerblading, catching a
movie, listening to some music,
writing a letter, stop drinking
caffeine, making a daily "to-do"
list and checking them off as you
do them and finally, students
should ask themselves, "does it
really matter?" Most of the time
it doesn't.
These tips can help some stu
dents to relieve stress. For seri
ous stress problems, students
should contact Student Counsel
ing Services,,visit the Health Ed
ucation Center, located in Room
016 of the A.P. Beutel Health
Center or call S45-1341 for gener
al information about stress and
other health concerns.
