COPING STRATEGIES
"It was Jesus who gave me peace when the shark severed my arm. I trust in Jesus whenever I'm going through a hard time. I see all the beautiful things that have come out of my situation. I'm able to share my story with young girls who have few role models, and I can help others cope with what they have been through."- Bethany Hamilton
COPING STRATEGIES
Coping strategies are conscious, intentional, and adaptive methods or techniques that individuals use to manage and deal with stress, challenges, or difficult emotions.
Coping strategies aim to alleviate emotional distress, regulate emotions, and promote a sense of control and empowerment.
"I think a basic level of fitness can help the body cope with all manner of incidents."
