As the semester is coming to an end everyone is excited for Christmas break and the holidays. However, this time can be very stressful for students too. With finals coming up, most students are on edge, very nervous and sometimes anxious of final exams. Here are some ways to destress during finals!
1. Hangout with your friends
Your friends are the ultimate way to destress. They cheer you up and make you laugh. With their help, you can overcome anything.
2. Go out
There are so many things to do in college. So many campuses have events going on. Attend a few of those. They will take your mind off of your finals even for a little while and you can clear your mind before you go back.
3. Step away from the books
This one seems impossible during finals. However, if you sit there for hours on end studying you will drive yourself insane. Even if its five minutes and all you do is go get a coffee refill, it will help.
4. Go to the gym
Excersising is a great way to destress. You can work out all your stress and anxiety. I suggest taking a yoga class because it will relax you and help get rid of all the tension you have built up over the semester.
5. Call your family
Your family is your permanent support system. They love to help you solve your problems so tell them about your stress. They know what to say or do to help you relax because they know you better than anyone.
6. Watch your favorite movie or TV show
You will probably think you have no time or you will be procrastinating by doing this one. I know when I am stressed especailly during finals, watching an episode of Friends or Grey's Anatomy really helps me relax.
We are almost to the end! Hang in there and use these tips to relax. Before you know it, finals will be over with and you will be sitting with your family and old friends back at home. All you need to do is stay positive and relax.
