In this study, four main stress-related areas including the Shen Man, Endocrine, Tranquilizer, and Relaxation points will be stimulated on the non-dominant ear in the intervention group. Intervention 2: Control group: stimulation and seed placement will be performed at 4 false points other than the main points and further away from the mentioned areas for the same period of time, and the same instructions as the intervention group will be given.
