STRESS WEEK WITH GOOGLE: How do I reduce my stress?
Let's be real here...99% of people are stressed out on a daily basis. However, I'm sure that close to 0% of those people actually do something to help manage their stress. Yep I caught you didn't I? Why do people think it's normal to overwork yourself to the point of breaking down but not taking time off for your mental state???? *applause* that is just bat sh*t😐
Relieving stress is actually easier than you may think. It can be as simple as taking a deep breath to as serious as running a mile on a treadmill (a deep breath sounds good right about now). Speaking from a college student's perspective I was very stressed freshmen year and I realized I had to start focusing on myself again. So, I started doing the dance and fitness classes and now it is a time out of my day that I look forward to and do for myself.
The most important thing is to really focus on yourself for at least a few minutes throughout the day. Even a nice warm shower where your singing Lady Gaga can relieve some stress. IN THE SHALL-OH SHAAAALO-OH WERE FAR FROM THE ShAlLOw nOwwwWww. *applause applause* I LIVE FOR THE APPLAUSE APPLAUSE APPL- *clears throat* sorry I had a Gaga moment.😊
Here are some helpful tips to help you reduce stress in a nice bulleted format so it's easier to read:

Applause Applause, you are so right. We live in a time where we literally pre-stress about being stressed like WHATTTTT. Sometimes you just have to remember we only live once so even if you need to take a mental health day to just chill, then do that!
