Stress is a normal part of life and something you cannot
control, however you can control your response to stress.
Here are seven ways to deal with stress:
1. Keep a positive attitude – sometimes the
way you think about things can make all of the
difference. Your attitude can help offset
difficult situations.

8. Coping Strategies
2. Accept that there are events you cannot control
– when you know there are times when you have given
all that you can to a situation, it allows you to expend
energy where it can be more effective.

relaxation, such as deep breathing,
muscle relaxation and meditation is
essential in training your body to relax.
Relaxation should be a part of your
daily regimen.

to cope with them - remember that you

stress comes from how you respond to

you to take care of others. Helping others
cope with stress through phone calls or
video chats can help you and your loved
