 This blog is all about highlighting what helps reduce stress! Especially now you are all nearly coming to the end of your academic year, the work load can start to increase…but that doesn’t mean the stress levels should too.
Baking for fun can really help relax the mind, as you are focusing on something other can work. Yes, getting your work done is a priority but trying to do something you enjoy is equally important. To some, baking is a sensory experience; the simple smell of a Victoria sponge baking can bring a smile to anyone’s face! The satisfaction of a finished product or even just decorating it to the design of your choice can help lift your mood…and once you have finished, you can have a slice to eat when you get back to the assignments, it all helps. The point is, baking can be a relaxing experience and it will inevitably help build on your existing skills, especially with the competitions just around the corner! Get in touch with your creative side this month, and allow yourself some ‘me’ time. Even if baking is not your go to… find something that suits you. This include colouring, reading, exercising, decorating …and so much more! Let us know what you do to relax, you never know, it may help others (email to abst.communicationsecretary@gmail.com) For now, why not have a go at making a simple Lemon Drizzle…send in your picture once you have made it, to have it featured on the website: INGREDIENTS Shelled eggs - 2 Caster sugar - 113g Plain flour - 113g Baking Powder - 5g Softened Butter - 113g Finely grated lemon zest - 1 Lemon juice - 1 Caster sugar - 43g Method
