This session focused on helping students understand exam stress as a normal experience and equipping
them with practical strategies to manage anxiety, overthinking, and performance pressure.
Students of Classes 11 and 12, along with teachers from higher secondary schools across the state,
participated actively, sharing concerns and questions related to headaches, fear of failure, screen
addiction, and parental expectations. The webinar highlighted the importance of healthy routines,
reduced mobile use, supportive communication from parents and teachers, and simple techniques like
breathing exercises to stay calm and focused.
