Arash Farzaneh, LANC (French Instructor) Department of Language and Cultures, Kwantlen Polytechnic University

Stress and anxiety are part of life, and, in fact, we cannot, nor should we avoid or evade them. In fact, we can use and channel them to not only enjoy our learning and teaching much more but to also become more open and receptive to creativity and the overall enjoyment of life! This enjoyment of life can be enhanced via deep engagement with the arts in all its rich shapes, forms, and glories to help deal with life’s multi-faceted pressures and stressors.
