In the style of "60 Second Health" podcast by Scientific American, we created podcasts about articles we read for Health class from KidsHealth.org. Then we recorded our podcasts, but you can read the script below.
Hi! My name is Veronica, and this is 60 Second timeout. Close your eyes and imagine yourself on a white sand beach, reading a good book, the sun warming your bare shoulders, the waves lapping at your feet. Did you feel relaxed, floating on air, and happy throughout? This is one of my favorite techniques for relaxation and anxiety relief. Today I will share with you advice from KidsHealth.org, including tips to reduce your stress levels.
You might think that staying up late with your friends is a good way to connect, and have fun…but not getting enough sleep, nourishment, and exercise just adds onto the stress. Without sleep, nourishment, and exercise, you are lethargic and not fit. These three components can also help create a positive body image. When you feel good about yourself, you are happier. If you are so stressed to the point where you want to scream, then take a calming hike in the woods. The natural serenity helps relax you, while the exercise produces happy hormones called endorphins.
If you ever feel overworked, then hop in a warm bubble bath, to burn off all that stress. Thanks for tuning in with me on 60 Second Timeout!
