You may wonder whether stress (焦虑) is a serious matter. The answer is "Yes". You should realize that stress is a risk to your health. If you want to live a long and healthy life, you need to begin to guard against stress from a young age.
Here are some ways to deal with stress and bring balance (平衡) to your life:
Be positive
One way to cancel out (消除) stress is through positive thinking. You should always look on the bright side of life, and imagine that you will have a happy and successful future.
Learn to relax
Force yourself to take a break from your studies and worries about exams. You can do this by taking a walk, reading a book, going to a concert or seeing a film, or just sitting in a private place and being silent for a moment.
Take up a hobby
Learn to paint, take up skating, or start playing a musical instrument. When you are busy with a hobby, you leave all your worries behind.
Take care of your body
Stress is your body's enemy. Taking exercise, eating healthily and getting enough sleep are all the things that can help you.
Laugh
Sometimes laughter is the best medicine for stress. Seeing a funny film or telling jokes with friends will often cheer you up when you are low.
