She’s always been one to do it all, but can become easily stressed. You are worried about her starting this next step in her life and want to give her some tips and tricks from a pro!!

1. Describe some of the negative effects of high levels of stress.

2. Using specific theories and examples from your readings, what advice would you give her about ways to manage, prevent, and cope with stress?
