Problem Statement
A common issue faced by students is the overwhelming feeling of stress due to projects, tests, and extra curricular activities. Between personal and school stressors, 49% of high school students experience daily stress, according to a NYU study (EurekAlert, 2015). Too much stress can lead to an individual’s immune system being compromised. Stress has the capability to decrease the amount of disease fighting cells in the body, ruin the integrity of disease fighting cells, and cause stressed individuals to be more vulnerable to disease (Cohen, et al. 2001).
