Educational Resource Handbook for Students from
the Duke University Talent Identification Program (TIP), “Too
Stressed to Think? Using the Body-Mind Connection to Get Back in Balance” by Annie Fox, 2008 Edition
“Hey, how's it
going?”
“I've got tons of homework and school just started. None of my friends are in any of my clases. Soccer
try outs are this afternoon,
and I forgot my shoes. And my mom wants me to baby-sit my brother tonight. How’s it going? I’m STRESSED!”

Scholastic Parents, “(Don't)
Rescue Me: When your child reaches middle school, it's time for a hands-off homework policy” by Abby
Margolis Newman,

only if one of these was true:
- She had married a millionaire.
- She had become a millionaire.
- She had been named Miss America.

College
Outlook, “Getting Real about College Life” by Annie Fox. When you leave
for college, you’ll say goodbye to all you’ve ever known (at least until Thanksgiving break). Throughout
your college career, you’re going to face many challenges. It’s normal and good to feel a certain level

at college, especially during the first weeks and months, you’ll want to be in control of stress, otherwise you
can start feeling weighed down and overwhelmed. More » |
