    With the new semester starting back up, we as stud With the new semester starting back up, we as students can be feeling different levels of stress and anxiety after being away from school for winter break. However, there are easy ways to release these negative emotions. Deep Breathing: Some popular ways of deep breathing are box breathing, belly breathing, and resonant breathing. You can try sitting, standing, or laying down while breathing, but make sure you are breathing with your diaphragm. Music: Listening to any genre of music or playing any instrument can give senses of relief. However, be aware that reactions vary from person to person in any situation: positive or negative. Exercise: Any type of exercise from jogging to lifting weights lowers the body’s stress hormones and releases chemicals to improve your move. Something as simple as walking can tackle your stress. Reading: Reading anything from informational articles to fantasy novels reduces stress levels by 68% and provides and escape to the world around you. Venting: Talking to your friends,writing your feelings out in a journal, or just doing something to get whatever you need off of you chest is considered venting. When using this coping mechanism remember that it is ok to talk about what you are going through whether it is good or bad. Hopefully these new coping skills can help make the new year a bit easier. - Rebecca L./VOX ATL #freeyourfeels
