MODULE 5 Stress & Fear Dealing with ANXIETY

Anxiety is a feeling of worry, nervousness and unease. It can make you feel very unhappy and stop you from enjoying your life. People have a lot of things in their lives that can make them feel anxious. Here are some helpful tips to help you cope with anxiety and feel better.

The best way to stop worrying about something is to distract yourself by doing something else, so you don’t have time to think about your worries for a while. You could a puzzle, watch a film, or just hang out with your friends so that you can forget your troubles for a short while.

Even light exercise can lift your mood, but the harder you work the better and longer-lasting the effect will be. Exercise increases the production of 'feel-good’ chemicals in the brain like serotonin and dopamine, and getting the heart pumping can make you feel energized.

Caffeine processed flour and sweets can affect your mood in a negative way - so avoid them. Instead, eat foods that can improve your mood, such as nuts, broccoli, yoghurt, oranges, whole grains and berries.

Laughter not only relieves anxiety, it also produces pain, fights viruses and heals wounds. If you can find something that makes you laugh out loud, then anxiety will lose its hold over you.

1.Florence Nightingale was born on 12 May 1820 into a wealthy and well-connected British family at the Villa Colombaia, in Florence, Tuscany, Italy, and was named after the city of her birth.

2.From a very young age, Florence Nightingale was active in philanthropy, ministering to the ill and poor people in the village neighboring her family’s estate. By the time she was 16 years old, it was clear to her that nursing was her calling. She believed it to be her divine purpose.

3.On 4 November 1854, Florence Nightingale arrived in Turkey with a group of 38 nurses from England. Britain was at war with Russia  and the conditions in the hospitals were very bad. Hundreds of soldiers were injured in the fighting.

4.Florence gained the nickname 'the Lady with the Lamp' during her work at Scutari. 'The Times' reported that at night she would walk among the beds, checking the wounded men holding a light in her hand. The image of 'the Lady with the Lamp' captured the public's imagination and Florence soon became a celebrity.

5.Florence’s work and achievement cannot be understated. She turned nursing into a respectable profession for women. Previously with the exception of nuns, most women who worked as nurses were working-class and often poorly trained and disciplined. Florence was determined to educate women in the field of nursing and turn it into a respectable occupation. Due in large part to her work in Crimea, Florence helped to transform the public image of nursing.
