Stress is part of life, what matters is how you handle it. While choosing relaxation
activities, it’s important to remember that not every relaxation method works for
everyone. We’re all different. The right method is the one that matches you, fits your
lifestyle, and able to focus your mind. That means it may require some trial and error
to find the way that work best for you. Once you do, regular practice can help reduce
everyday stress and anxiety, improve your sleep, boost your energy and mood, and
improve your overall health.

THE AMBITIOUS HEART, Marina Damaskinos (Pictured Right)
“Grey feathered wings with sprits of color representing the drive to
push forward. The heart fluttering in the girl’s hands symbolizes
passion alongside having wings ( the drive) of its own. There are
skeleton hands dragging scratches in her skin, pulling her back. They
describe discipline and the struggle to continue, despite doubts,
mistakes, and all against it. Her clothes and hair are inspired by what
I see in the mirror. I drew this piece with the hopes and intentions of
rising my self-esteem by displaying my strengths creatively.
My strength is in my drive to succeed, while art is the passion in which I
dedicate my drive to.”
