Stress

Do you relate to any of the following statements?

I have trouble getting up in the morning.
I often feel tired
I forget things
I have unexplained aches and pains
I often have headaches and/or stomachaches

Some ideas to reduce stress :-

Take at least two fifteen minute breaks
Don't eat at your desk (work table)
Breathe deeply often.
Take vitamins
Drink fresh fruit or veggie juice
Move your body (exercise, brisk walking)
Learn self-massage (example: reflexology)
Drink lots of water
Try positive visualization.

"Kak hajar tak pergi taklimat ke?" tegur Guru Besar
"Hari ni ke? sambil membuka fail dan membelek surat panggilan taklimat.
" Laa... Betul la hari nih" terus bergegas keluar dan memandu laju menuju ke
Hotel hillcity yang hanya 5 minit perjalanan dari Rapat Setia.

Memang stress bila pergi kursus dengan tergopoh-gapah. Sepanjang perjalanan, tarik nafas dalam-dalam dan hembus perlahan-lahan. Baca doa-doa ma'athurat. Tepat-tepat pukul 8.00 pagi sampai ke destinasi dan pendaftaran baru bermula.
Tapi ramai peserta sudah datang lebih awal dan memenuhi ruang di hadapan dewan. Terpaksa duduk di bahagian tengah dewan. Instead of listening to the talk, the people at the back are making a lot of noise and chatting! Sama aje Cina dan Melayu. Malas nak stress . Relax. I said to myself, depa tak dengar, sekolah depa yang rugi. JPN siap sebut lagi nak bagi anugerah kat sekolah-sekolah yang mendapat pencapaian cemerlang dalam UPSR.

Pegawai tadi ada sebut bahawa negeri Terengganu masih lagi mengekalkan kecemerlangan dalam UPSR seperti tahun 2008. Apakah rahsia mereka? Adakah disebabkan negeri itu negeri Terengganu Darul IMAN?
