Stress Management
Stress is a natural part of academic life, but when left unmanaged it can affect performance, relationships, physical health, and overall wellbeing. This course helps students understand the science of stress, recognise their own stress patterns, and develop practical skills to manage pressure in healthy and sustainable ways.
Through interactive discussions, self-reflection, and evidence-based strategies, students learn how to stay calm, focused, and resilient even during demanding phases of college life.
