. Car Jams

With finals week approaching, we all need to cut loose! The best way I have found is car jamming, also known as dancing in the car to awesome music with friends whilst driving. :) My personal favorite song to car jam during this time of year is "Mistletoe" by Justin Bieber.

2. Naps

I will always stand behind naps and promote them, especially whilst I am in college! Naps are the perfect way to recharge and escape the stresses of this time of studying and ugly-crying.

3. Work Out

I despise working out just as much as the next girl, however working out has been proven to help reduce stress and boost moods, all things we need during finals week!

4. Bible Reading/Studies

I am a big believer in turning to Christ in times of need, whether that be heartbreak, anger, or stress. When you are in the midst of a panic about all that you need to get done and the grade that will result from this week, take it to God! He always has an ear to listen to his children and desires for you to talk to him throughout every situation. Ways to do so can include: prayer, reading his word (the Bible), and joining in fellowship with other believers.

5. Be Prepared

As counterintuitive as it sounds, preparing for your finals and sticking your nose in the books can help de-stress you prior to an exam. The more prepared you are, the less worried you need to be! You know the material and now, therefore, only must regurgitate it onto paper!
