After reading Chapter 8 pages 219-233 in your On Course textbook, you will also learn about healthy ways to reduce your stress. People in a Creator mindset find healthy ways to reduce stress so you can stay on course to reach your dreams. In this activity, you will practice identifying positive methods for reducing the stress in your life.
Assignment:
- Write about a recent time when you felt overwhelmed, angry, sad, or anxious. Choose a different experience from the previous assignment (i.e., Emotional Intelligence). Fully describe the situation that caused your emotional response; then describe the distressing feelings you experienced. Finally, explain what you did (if anything) to manage your emotions in a positive way.
- Now Identify two or more strategies that you learned from the textbook that you could use in the future when you experience this emotion. Be specific and use strategies from the textbook; remember the power of the 4Es–examples, experiences, explanation, and evidence– to improve the quality of your writing. When you’re done, notice if simply writing about your stressors and ways to manage them may have reduced your level of stress
