Topic – STRESS MANAGEMENT (Life Skills)
Conducted by– DR. RINU VARGHESE, CAPS
Held on– 5/10/2020
The Stress Management session by Dr. Rinu Varghese mainly focussed on what stress could be for students, how it can vary based on impact and duration and how can students efficiently manage stress during University exams and other competitive exams. Surveys report that most of the students feel anxious during exams and things worsen under family pressure hence, the stress needs to be managed and that could happen through efficient time management, maintaining a state of equilibrium between professional and personal life, maintaining a healthy lifestyle by shifting to healthy diet options and exercises which would help to enhance both the physical and mental prowess. During competitive exams, apart from the aforementioned mechanism, the key to stress management lies in chalking out a proper timetable, continuous revision and writing practice, plenty of sleep, and most importantly maintaining a positive attitude towards the exam.
