Check the ones that apply:

- ✅ join a yoga class — helps reduce stress, improve relaxation and breathing.
- ✅ talk to his parents about his feelings — getting emotional support and guidance is important.
- ❌ hope that his feelings of stress will pass — passive hoping isn’t an effective coping strategy on its own; active steps are better.
- ✅ join a new club or sports team at school — builds social connections and a sense of belonging.
- ✅ start a new exercise routine — exercise reduces stress and improves mood.

If his stress continues or gets worse (affecting sleep, school performance, or daily functioning), encourage him to talk to a school counselor or a mental health professional.
