Stress

Book - The Stress Report - The Do Lectures
Book - Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear - Elizabeth Gilbert
Book - Deep Work - Rules for focused success in a distracted world - Cal Newport

Upworthy Article - "This school replaced detention with meditation. The results are stunning.”

Task - Questions.






What was surprising?
 A lot of the negative thoughts were about appearance. It’s a bit selfish, you shouldn’t have to focus about yourself too much. Societies standards nowadays affect this.
Some of the answers were very vague like “i’m not good enough” - but what is it that they feel they’re not good enough for/about? There's nothing wrong with bettering and improving yourself, but you should know what it is and start working on it instead of just acknowledging it. 
De-stressing was mostly escapism - like watching netflix or films (wasting time) and not getting anything done at all will not help. You should make a list - de-stress by planning ahead. 

Task - Haiku's.




Who would it be for? What form would it take? 
For freshers students - part of a freshers pack. a little book/leaflet - do’s and don’t.
Have the ‘do’ solution next to the ‘don’t’ negative haiku - turning the negatives into positives/ flip the thinking. Lenticular postcards/ things with two sides.
