📚 Make a realistic timetable, so that when you aren’t studying in non-study time you don’t feel guilty

📚 Switch up your venue so you don’t get cabin fever, the local library or even the park

📚 Maintain support, if you access a counsellor, well-being worker or pastoral support still go to these appointment

📚 Open a window when indoors so that you have fresh air

📚 Buddy up, could you pair up with a friend studying the same subject

📚 Have a good sleep routine, try and shower and go to sleep at the same time each evening, and wake each morning at the same time

📚 Practise some mindfulness, stretches, massage pressure points, short meditations and positive affirmations will all help to help you feel balanced
