Surprisingly, most stress-burdened teens are not aware of proven strategies they can use to control stress. On-camera teens briefly describe the major stressors they experience--academics, testing, family issues, social issues, and more. Then experts step them through ten proven strategies that can help mitigate unhealthy stress, including learning to limit overload and prioritize time, daily physical activity, getting better sleep, good nutrition, relaxation and meditation techniques, staying connected to others, time management skills and much more.

“Change what you can, cope with what you can’t” is the advice given in this self-help/self-awareness program aimed at alleviating stress. Two stylish hosts and participant teens are joined by clinical psychology professionals including L. Kevin Chapman, Robin F. Goodman, and Peter Montminy, as the roots of physical, mental, and emotional strain are discussed. Noting that a good balance of stress is important (too much is bad, too little isn’t challenging and can cause lethargy), the program breaks down 10 tips, including being physically active to release endorphins, working out a better plan for sleep, hygiene, practicing good nutrition, avoiding drugs and alcohol, and engaging in relaxation techniques such as meditation. Although the problem-solving methodology of Overloaded includes a fair amount of common sense guidance, it also serves as an apt reminder of how to recognize if you need help, while encouraging viewers to find their passion and live better. Highly Recommended. Aud: J, H, C, P. (J. Williams-Wood)
