Anxiety and stress are a part of life - but they don't have to take over your life.

Self-management on a variety of levels is key.

Cognitive : face your fears with constructive self-talk

Behavioural : devise and stick to an effective study programme - which also includes time for recreational and physical needs

Emotional : contain your fears through more insight and foresight: use appropriate self-monitoring, distraction and relaxation strategies
