: Academic life refers to that period of one's life that is primarily devoted to formal education, learning, and intellectual pursuits within educational institutions like schools, colleges, universities, or research institutes. Acquiring knowledge, skills, and academic achievements encompasses a broad range of activities and experiences. The academic life is often accompanied by a range of stressors that can negatively impact a student's physical, emotional, and mental health. The purpose of this theoretical paper is to present various coping mechanisms and strategies that individuals can employ to effectively manage academic stress. Educators, counsellors, and students can benefit from the framework presented here for promoting resilience and well-being in educational settings.
