How to cope up with stress?




The COVID-19 pandemic has had a notable impact on people's lives. Many of us are confronted with difficulties that can be exhausting, challenging, and elicit strong emotions in both adults and children. 

During traumatic events such as mass shootings, natural disasters, or pandemics, it is natural to experience stress, anxiety, grief, and worry. 

The question is how are you going to overcome such situation?

People of General Santos first feature for 'Your Story Matters' is Sanie Moda, 27 years old and is working as a security guard at UFDPC. Because of pandemic and the using of face mask, he suffered from skin allergy for 1 year that crashed his self confidence. We all have different ways of coping up with stress. As for Mr. Sanie, he does fishing for fun to relieve stress from the trauma of being sick for almost a year. He believes that anything is possible if you have faith in God. And if we ever overcome the hardships that life throw us, we can overcome everything.


"Faith is unseen but felt, faith is strength when we feel we have none, faith is hope when all seem lost."


"Keep the faith, hold on.

Things will get better.

It might be stormy now,

But it can't rain forever."

Cajun Seafood Boil

A mukbang or meokbang (Korean:, pronounced [mk.pa], also known as an eating show) is an online audiovisual broadcast in which a host consumes various amounts of food while interacting with the audience, which first became popular in South Korea in 2010 and has since spread globally. Its popularity grew as a result of its stark contrast to Korean societal and gender norms, as well as food etiquette. Korea has a strong food culture. Many people believe that mukbang arose as a result of the increasing loneliness of single Koreans in the digital age. But what is it about it that makes it so appealing to so many people? Visual hunger, or the concept of "eating with our eyes," is one possible explanation. Because the brain and visual system are so closely linked, looking at beautiful images of food increases the human desire for it as well as the satiation of hunger. Because of the widely spread of mukbang around the world, people have been introduced to a lot of different foods of...

The Story of Badjao People

The Badjao tribe consists of nomadic seafaring tribes. The tribe's men are skilled fishermen, particularly in the art of pantana fishing (spearfishing). They used to live on houseboats that moved through the sea as needed to meet their fishing needs. The Badjao are also skilled divers who hunt for pearls. These activities continue to play an important role in the Badjao people's lives to this day. However, due to increased piracy in the 1960s, the Badjao people were forced to leave the sea and settle on the land. Despite romantic depictions of the tribe, the Badjao never had an easy life. However, when they were still living at sea, they were at least free from the daily rejection and hardship brought on by other tribes that live on land. These sea guardians have seen firsthand that times are difficult on the sea, but even more so on land. The Badjao are currently the most marginalized ethnic group and one of the poorest tribes in the Philippines, a Muslim tribe shunned by almo...
