It is Testing Season for the Public Schools. Here are 10 tips to help with testing anxiety.

🧠 1. Practice Positive Self-Talk
Start the day with kind thoughts! Remind yourself:
• “I can do this.”
• “I’ve got this!”
• “I don’t have to be perfect, just do my best.”
________________________________________
🌬️ 2. Do a Deep Breathing Exercise
Try square breathing before you leave for school or when you sit at your desk:
• Inhale (4 seconds) 🟦
• Hold (4 seconds) 🟦
• Exhale (4 seconds) 🟦
• Hold (4 seconds) 🟦
(Imagine tracing a square in the air or on your desk!)
________________________________________
👟 3. Move Your Body
Stretch, take a short walk, or do a few jumping jacks in the morning to shake out nerves. A little movement helps your brain wake up and feel calm.
________________________________________
🦋 4 Try the Butterfly Hug
This simple calming trick helps your body and brain feel safe and focused.
How to do it:
1. Cross your arms over your chest like you’re giving yourself a hug.
2. Put your hands on your upper arms or shoulders (like butterfly wings).
3. Gently tap your hands back and forth, slowly, like wings flapping.
4. Breathe deeply while you tap.
You can do this in the morning or right before the test to feel calm and grounded.

________________________________________
🎵 5. Listen to Something Calming
Start your morning with soft music or a fun song you love. It can help lift your mood and make your morning feel more relaxed.
________________________________________
😌 6. Normalize Mistakes
It’s totally okay not to know every answer. Everyone makes mistakes—even adults! What matters most is trying your best.
________________________________________
🍎 7. Start with a Healthy Breakfast
Eat something that fuels your brain, like fruit, eggs, or toast. Avoid too much sugar, which can make you feel jittery later.
________________________________________
💧 8. Stay Hydrated
Drink water in the morning and bring a water bottle if allowed. Being hydrated helps your brain think clearly.
________________________________________
🧺 9. Get Organized the Night Before
Lay out your clothes, pack your backpack, and double-check your supplies. A calm morning starts with being ready the night before.
________________________________________
🕊️ 10. Visualize Success
Before you start, close your eyes and picture yourself calmly taking the test, reading each question, and doing your best. You’ve got this!

At Jones Family Counseling Center, PLLC we treat mental health diagnosis including PTSD.

Did you know?

“About 6 out of every 100 people (or 6% of the U.S. population) will have PTSD at some point in their lives. Many people who have PTSD will recover and no longer meet diagnostic criteria for PTSD after treatment. So, this number counts people who have PTSD at any point in their life, even if their symptoms go away. (https://www.ptsd.va.gov/understand/common/common_adults.asp #:~:text=About%206%20out%20of%20every,if%20their%20symptoms%20go%20away.) “
