Stress Management Techniques - 3
7. Rest Yourself as regularly as possible.
Sleep 7-8 hours a night. Take study breaks. There is only so much
your mind can absorb at one time. It needs time to process and
integrate information. A general rule of thumb: take a ten minute
break every hour. Rest your eyes as well as your mind.
8. Be Aware of Yourself.
Be aware of distress signals such as insomnia, headaches, anxiety,
upset stomach, lack of concentration, colds/flu, excessive tiredness,
etc. Remember, these can be signs of potentially more serious
disorders (i.e., ulcers, hypertension, heart disease).
