I am currently headed into my senior year of college and I have found throughout the years of many all-nighters and stressing so much you cry, that simple changes can improve your perspective.
1. Yoga - As cliche as it is, yoga helps more than you would believe. You can do a quick five minute yoga session and it can completely calm you down. This will help to refresh on studying, your day or even brighten your mood. I highly recommend Yoga with Adrienne on YouTube if you're too nervous to go to an actual yoga class like me or are too pushed for time.
2. Reading - Many people have started to underrate reading and choose to open Netflix instead recently. Although I do love myself a good binge watch of The Office, reading helps to keep your brain active as well as escape for a bit. If you are on the go than simply begin an audio book and listen to it in the car! I highly recommend reading "Tuesdays With Morrie" by Mitch Album. It will change your life, guaranteed.
3. Find a Hobby - If you do ever have some spare time or want to take a quick fifteen minute break, finding a hobby can help you feel happy and relaxed. After putting two and two together that I love to write and doodle, I took up calligraphy. I know for me, whenever I finish a craft or anything I have been working on using my hobby, it can also help me feel accomplished and productive at the end of the day.
4. Coffee - I may be slightly biased considering I have been a barista for two years but seriously coffee can transform your day. It boosts your energy, it tastes delicious and is helpful if you are in need of a new Instagram picture.
5. Bake - Try baking a new dessert! If you do not have much to do and might have a sweet tooth, try baking some brownies or cookies from scratch. Not only will your place smell amazing but you'll have some tasty treats to snack on later!
6. Call Your Parents, Friend, Whoever - Just call them. I'm sure they will allow you to vent, scream, laugh, whatever you need to do and you will instantly feel better. Sometimes all you need is your best friend, your grandma or your mom.
