HEALTH TIPS

Take a moment and practice these stress management tips from Moffitt Health Center medical professionals. To see more daily health tips, follow Southern Miss Student Health Services on Facebook (@ USM Student Health Services at Moffitt Health Center), Twitter (@USMhealth) and Instagram (@moffitt_health).

Emotional Health Tip #1: For the first 10 tips this month, we will be focusing on how to stay mentally and emotionally strong, as well as physically healthy, during the evolving COVID-19 pandemic. Today, we introduce FACE COVID, and will spend the next 9 days breaking down what that means.  

Emotional Health Tip #2: In times like these, it is easy to get caught up in the fear and anxiety that comes with change and uncertainty. Instead, focus on what you can control. Read a book for fun, listen to your favorite music, and continue working hard in your classes. 

Emotional Health Tip #3: Understand that circumstances like these may bring up thoughts and feelings of all kinds. Acknowledge them as they come but focus on what's happening right now. Take a few slow, deep breaths if you need to to help you calm down. 

Emotional Health Tip#4: #FACECOVID today by taking the time to come back to your body. If you find yourself anxious, fearful, or stressed in response to current circumstances, take a moment to take a deep breath and let it out slowly. Stretching and other simple physical activity can be helpful as well.  

Emotional Health Tip #5: Whether you are working on homework, preparing for an online exam, or simply catching up on your favorite show while social distancing, #FACECOVID by refocusing your energy and attention on the task at hand.

Emotional Health Tip#6: #FACECOVID with commitment! Perhaps you have had things on your to-do list or want-to-do list that are important to you but you have kept putting off. Take this time of social distancing and sheltering in place to figure out what matters to you and commit to doing those things, especially if it helps you live a healthier lifestyle. 

Emotional Health Tip #7: It can sometimes be easier to be kind to others than it is to be kind to ourselves. Learn more about the importance of self-kindness and how you can put these tips into practice by visiting this site.

Emotional Health Tip #8: #FACECOVID today by identifying your core values! Never done that before and not sure how? Visit this site for a quick activity to help you. Once you know, let your values guide the things you do today and in the days ahead. 

Emotional Health Tip #9: #FACECOVID with good resources! Should you seek medical information related to coronavirus or mental health during this time, be sure to identify reputable, and trustworthy resources both on and off campus or online.  

Emotional Health Tip #10: #FACECOVID by following cleaning and disinfecting tips provided by the CDC on this site. Social distancing is important but it doesn't mean you have to distance emotionally. Stay in touch via phone, social media, and other methods of communication.  

Emotional Health Tip #11: Did you know? 1 in 5 college students struggle with stress most of the time. While some stress can be good, as it helps motivate you to complete tasks, chronic stress can be harmful to your health. If you find yourself struggling to cope with or manage your stress, don't be afraid to seek help. 

Emotional Health Tip #12: It is important to understand how stress can impact your overall health. Visit this site for more information on how stress effects your body. If you notice signs of severe stress, don't be afraid to seek help!
