It is the third semester of school and grades are getting harder to keep up. Tournaments, weightlifting, and track meets are coming up, along with pressures from school, friends, and family. It is hard to not get stressed. Here are some easy ways to keep the stress level of this time of year to a minimum.
1. Color/Paint/Draw
Find the nearest pen or pencil and draw. For $1-4 at Dollar General stressed out artists- to-be can get some paints. Use the benefits of art to express creativity and calm down.
2. Watch a Movie
Watching a movie can reduce stress because it gives a chance to get away from cleaning and homework and school.
3. Take a Nap

Making cookies is fun and enjoyable to do anytime stress rolls in. Eating the cookies is an even bigger way to get rid of stress.
5. Listen to Music
