Coping strategies that may help
Mindful Breathing
Take a few moments to focus on your breath, inhaling deeply through your nose and exhaling slowly through your mouth. This can help ground you in the present.
Daily Journaling
Write down your thoughts and feelings each day. This can help you process emotions and identify stress triggers.
Physical Activity
Engaging in regular physical activity, even a short walk, can elevate your mood and reduce stress levels.
Connect with Nature
