The final lesson in the High School and Beyond Module focuses on stress management. The big idea here is that situations themselves are not stressful, but how one perceives stress is the issue. With that point in mind, participants brainstorm stressful situations, identify physical and emotional symptoms of stress, and then brainstorm stress-management techniques they can use to change their attitudes and reduce anxiety.
