“How about stress? Stress relief techniques.”

Abstract

My diploma thesis discusses stress and stress relief techniques. The target group of my project are the students age 18-30. Stress is an everyday phenomenon encountered by young people, but they are not aware how aggravating it could be. Therefore I decided to write this work which combines basic information about exercises dealing with movement, meditation, drawing or writing. In successive chapters I discuss a positive influence of these exercises on our daily mood and productivity. I draw my conclusions and use examples taken from several websites on psychology, books about mindfulness and personal development as well as my own life experience. Main goal of my work is to awake young people through convincing them that everyday relaxation is necessary to keep body and mind healthy.
