Stress Busters
Learning how to manage stress is one of the most important skills for overall well-being, success, and happiness.
A Stress-Buster is an action, habit, or practice that is scientifically proven to help your brain and body effectively handle the daily pressures and stressors you encounter.
We've selected 5 key Stress-Busters and created activities for our District's patrons to practice at home. The five stress busters are Quality Sleep, Supportive Relationships, Balanced Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Mindfulness Practices.
