Tackling stress with a lot of fun

Girl students of St Mary’s College had a great time at a stress-busting workshop
Workload in colleges often results in a lot of stress in students. Finding ways to tackle the same was St Mary’s College, Yousufguda. This week, a workshop was held for the girl students that taught them how to handle stress. And it was a fun activity.
“Our guidance counsellor shared a few tips on how to handle stress and created situations where we basically role played to how we would react. I was asked to play a heartbroken girl,” says Sunaila Raheem, a student.
And they all agree that such sessions are important. “Be it in college or at home or just those mood swings… We often end up stressed. In our college, the strength of girls is less compared to boys and that’s why such sessions for girls are important,” says R. Sharmin, another student.
Talking about the tips, K. Kavya Sai Preksha says, “We were told how to control negative thoughts how we could talk to our teachers. Also, how we can listen to music or read books when stressed.”
During the session, no one remembered their tensions. “I was actually stressed. But we were all laughing, during the session. At the end, everyone was singing and even dancing,” says K. Madhuri.
