Stress Safety Net for Academic Excellence (SSN AE)
Rationale
Because of the continuously increasing enrolment of students in targeted academic curricula, it is essential to consider the impact of such course demands on students’ social and emotional functioning. The accumulation of stressful life experiences serves as a significant and pervasive risk factor for academic success and development of adolescent psychopathology.
Unmanageable stress also affects the Teachers’ quality of life and performance at work. Managing stress at optimum level is the only way out to maintain motivation, positive mind-set and sustainable performance with well-being.
Stress Management Lab(SML) with its decade of research and training experience has worked closely with International council of Stress Management Professionals(ICSMP), Australia and has devised a comprehensive Stress Management program called “Stress Safety Net“(SSN) to enable an effective and efficient Stress Management model to meet the requirements of Students Academic Excellence and Teachers well-being.
