    “Ways to Combat Stress during a Global Health Crisis”

    Ever since the 2019 novel coronavirus, otherwise known as Covid-19 was declared a
    pandemic on March 11, 2020, we have stayed at home and minimized interaction with
    the outside world. As of writing this essay, the pandemic is still ongoing and as a result
    some of us have experienced struggles, one being stress. While stress is a normal
    reaction to certain situations, we must try to avoid it from greatly affecting our life and
    resist it.
    In order to combat stress, it is important to learn more about it first. Stress is a response
    to an internal or external cause called a stressor, and this is not the same as anxiety
    which is actually a person’s specific response to stress. Examples of stressors
    emerging during the pandemic are loneliness, increased works and projects for both
    students and employees, reduced social support, as well as financial issues.
    There are many ways to manage stress, such as doing the things you love, though it is
    different for every one of us. It can be ranging from playing an instrument you like,
    doing the arts, or even just sleeping. For instance, let’s say Andrew is struggling. For
    him to calm himself, Andrew will listen to music. What Andrew has done will undeniably
    make him more relaxed. In addition to this, listening to your body and its needs is still
    significant, and by doing so, you are certain to be walking on the path to a stress-free
    life during this pandemic. Aside from doing things you are passionate about, being
    honest and connecting with the people you trust might also make you feel like you are
    not alone, which will definitely help combat stress.
    It is crucial to understand that these are just some of the ways to try to avoid and reduce
    stress’s effect in our life and those who we love. The most essential lesson to learn is
    that a person’s emotional state is as important as their physical state, and in a
    pandemic where our interaction with the outside world is minimized, we should stay
    strong and be sure to make time to do what we love.
