With the second rounds of exams coming up and the cold weather taking over, we need to remember to take care of ourselves during this busy season!
Here are some tips on how to remember self-care:
1 – Get outside
Whether it’s a ten-minute walk or a run to get your mind off life, fresh air is so important.
2 – Spend quality time with friends
Surround yourself with loved ones, you need support for exams!
3 – Shop for Christmas
Shopping cures all, no explanation needed.
4 – Make sleep a priority
You will not be able to function to the best of your ability if your body does not get adequate rest!
5 – Try a new relaxing activity
Ideas: read a book, write in a journal, practice mindfulness.
6 – It’s okay to say no
If you say yes to everyone during this season, you will have no time for yourself! It is okay to not participate in every activity on campus.
7 – Practice gratitude
Reach out to family and friends and let them know how much they mean to you during this Thanksgiving season <3
8 – Practice a self-care act daily
Ideas: face mask, an “everything” shower, eat healthy
