When I was at school, I had to learn how to have a well-balanced life in order to reduce stress and anxiety. Below
are some of the typical things I did. Firstly, I managed my time properly. I started to plan my schedule, made a
weekly work list and gave priority to some of my work. This helped me concentrate my efforts on my most
important tasks. In addition, I communicated with my family, friends, and teachers about my busy schedule and
problems, so they would offer me additional support. I also took breaks appropriately because they helped me
keep away from stress and anxiety and gave my brain a rest and improved my mood. Finally, I looked after my
physical health. I got at least eight hours of sleep a day. I played football with my classmates twice a week and
went for a walk with my grandparents early every morning. Besides, I also tried to follow a healthy diet. I ate a
