Develop Healthy Habits
Sleep
- Get 7-8 hours of sleep each night to recharge your body and immune system.
- Start a schedule for sleeping and waking. Aim to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.
- Avoid caffeine and large meals before bed time. Both will give you trouble falling asleep.
- Use your bed for sleep and sex only.
- Avoid overstimulating your brain before going to sleep. Read a book in bed instead of watching the TV or surfing the internet.
Exercise
- Not only does exercise give you a break from the hardwork that you are doing, it also releases endorphins. Endorphins help you feel happy and relaxed.
- Aim to exercise for 30 minutes most days of the week.
- Not into the gym? Try some of these ways to get moving:
- jog or walk to South Campus and back
- walk to all of your classes instead of taking the bus
- get your friends together to play a sport
- join an intramural team
Nutrition
- Eat 3 meals a day. Eating breakfast in the morning will increase your concentration and problem solving abilities. This will make it easier for you to understand what your professor is talking about in class.
