Anxiety, stress, lack of sleep is the best ways to describe how most college students are feeling about their upcoming finals.
There is so much work to do, from last minute papers, to going all out to trying to secure that final grade we've been working for all semester.
A bit of advice I have come to realize is that you are going to need to take breaks between studying for your finals.
It is the best way to dim the stress between studying.
During these breaks I suggest that you do something that you are passionate about.
It hobby or it could be something as simple as watching a movie that you love.
Now I know what you are probably thinking.... that finals are more important and that the more time you spend studying the better off you will do.
While it is true that the more you prepare for them the better grade you will receive, by studying you are causing mental wear and tear on your body.
As a result this can cause stress, anxiety and for some people a lack of sleep.
By taking a simple hour out of your day to do something that makes you happy, will not only give your mind some much needed rest, but it'll also allow you to decompress, even if it is only for a brief period of time.
