In your own words define coping as a concept, and describe the two different types of coping strategies discussed in Chapter 14: Stress and Health. Please identify one specific situation and then describe how individuals might react to the same situation if they utilized one of the types of coping strategies vs. the other type of coping strategy (e.g. there should be TWO different examples of coping to the same situation).

As we are quickly approaching finals and the end of a challenging, online-only semester, please describe three specific tools for healthy living as discussed in Chapter 14: Stress and Health that you feel you could implement in your own life to manage your stress more effectively.

• BE SPECIFIC about what tools for healthy living you could implement to help you cope more effectively and HOW you expect them to help you manage stress more effectively
• For example:
  • Too vague: I will engage in spiritual practices more frequently. (WHAT KIND of spiritual practices? HOW will you incorporate this into your life?)
  • Specific: I will join my church’s young adult weekly bible study and begin my day with a silent prayer 5 out of 7 days of the week. I will contact my friend Rebecca in the bible study and put their meetings in my calendar, and to remember my prayer practice I will set an alarm in my phone to go off at 8:00 AM
