如何管理压力？

压力存在于每个人的生活中。它可以成为你积极进取的动力，但如果不加控制，慢性压力也有可能会使你出现很多生理不适，如焦虑、失眠、高血压等。本周的心·Tips就来教你怎样合理控管理压力。

1、  从压力源中抽身而出
哪怕只是20分钟，从令你倍感压力的事物中脱身而出，调整一下自己的心情，你的感觉会好很多。

2、  运动
我们都知道运动有益身心健康，所以尝着在倍感压力的时候活动20分钟，你会立刻得到一些释放，而这将持续好几个小时呢！

3、  笑一笑
大脑会控制我们的情感与面部表情，当你感觉到压力的时候，你的面部表情会立刻显现出来。所以多笑一笑会令你释放掉一些压力，从而改善情况。

4、  寻求人际支持
当你把自己的想法分享给其他人的时候，朋友们会帮你分担许多压力。不过记住，要找一个可靠的人哦。

5、  冥想
冥想能够使身体和思维得到放松并提高专注力，它还能够开拓你的视野，令你自省。

How to manage stress?

 Stress exists in everybody’s life. Some stress can be beneficial at times as it can provide the drive and energy to help you. However, uncontrolled chronic stress can result in serious health conditions including anxiety, insomnia, and high blood pressure. This week, let’s talk about some tips to help manage stress.

1.       Take a break from the stress
Even just 20 minutes, get away from things that make you feel stressed and try to take care of yourself, you will feel much better.

2.       Exercise
Exercise benefits your mind just as well as your body. 20-minute exercise in the midst of a stressful time can give an immediate effect that can last for several hours.

3.       Laugh or Smile
Our brains control our emotions and facial expressions. When you are stressed, your face will show it. So laughing or smiling can help relieve some of that tension and improve the situation.

4.       Get social support
When you share your concerns or feelings with another person it helps relieve stress. Remember, find someone you trust or feel comfortable with.

5.   Meditate
Meditation helps the mind and body to relax and focus. Reflection can help people see new perspectives and develop self-compassion.

 

To all the people from overseas:

Dear all,

WelcomeHome Multi-language Support has been running for six months now. In this period we have successfully organised various kinds of workshops and events and gathered people from all over the world to join us. Our aim is to provide a warm, safe and homely feeling space for people from overseas. We sincerely hope all of our “family” members can feel supported by each other and enjoy every moment living in a foreign country.

Today after all the hard work we have finally launched our Inaugural newsletter. Please find it here. And please leave your comments and feedback, forward it to others and we promise we will make it better.

Here I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our “family members”. Thank you for joining WelcomeHome.nYour trust is the most important thing for us. At the same time, I really want to thank all of our team members, as without your encouragement and tireless work WelcomeHome would not have made it this far. I have to say I am really happy I have met all of you and I really appreciate having you as my team mates so that we can work together to make WelcomeHome grow faster. And last but not least I need to thank my tutors, classmates and friends who support me and encouraged me all the time. This is really important to me. I hope everyone can find a warm, comfortable and happy feeling in WelcomeHome’s family.

Although WelcomeHome is still young and there are still many things to be improved, I believe as long as we keep working, keep holing our belief about helping people from overseas find their happiness living in a foreign country, we will make it soon.

So welcome to join us and being one of our family members.

Kind regards,

Ziwei Wang

欢迎你们加入到我们这个大家庭中来！

站在黄昏中的卡尔顿山，离玫瑰色的云雾最近的地方，痴痴地瞭望。我倾尽此生韶华，只为与你初次相遇。山雾摇曳着远方的风笛声，温柔而和缓地迎面拂过，滋润着异乡人的心扉。这座小城，氤氲成了一幅绝美的情画。

仿佛是有灵魂的，向你诉说着百年的沧桑。爱丁堡的厚重从来不会让人感到沉闷，沿途路过的精致别墅，黑栅栏，白窗棂，五彩花篮使人沉浸在无限遐想中。中世纪的鹅卵石古道，纵横交错。英式的红色电话亭矗立街头，而色彩同样鲜亮的双层观光巴士，在以黑灰色调为主的城市背景里，婉约成了一曲断章。沿Royal  Mile走过去，看到一个瘦削的男人，手持竖琴，坐在路边，双手抚动琴弦。花白的头发垂肩，晚风时常从他的发间和琴弦之间穿过。琴声轻柔、灵巧，在空气中流淌。此刻，时间为他静止，仿佛伸手就可以触摸到音符。

流年未央，经年未忘 。作为异乡的学子，些许迷茫，不知所措，这座城市的美却吞噬了一切忧伤。缱绻的夜色，微醺了时间的沉香，朦胧的月色环抱着山脚下的这座小城，远处的大海又沉沉地睡去……

Standing on Calton hill,  I spend all of my life waiting just for this meeting with you.   The winds, the fog, slowly and softly touching my face and pulling my heart strings.  These things became just the perfect picture of this city.

Edinburgh, this historical city never lets you feel bored with her soul.  Passing by those beautiful buildings makes your imagination run out of control.  The traditional cobblestone road and the colourful tour bus compose a lovely song around the city.  Looking down the Royal Mile, there is an old man playing a harp.; the music and surroundings combine to create a dream like atmosphere where time seems to slow down and even stop.

The time passes quickly, as a foreign student.  I may feel confused and may get lost, but the beauty of this city just takes all of my worries away.  The city slows down with the dark blue night, Arthurs Seat illuminated by the moon and the sea sparkles in the distance; until tomorrow.
