’For Colored Girls’

2020 has been incredibly stress inducing. School only piles on top of that. Finals and midterms are coming up soon as well. Scrambling to get any sort of studying in, is probably everyone's priority at the moment.

But please, make sure you take care of yourself.

Some ways you can do this:

▪︎Give your brain a break. Sleep on the material you just read.

▪︎Don't study for more than two hours at a time. Your brain will be overloaded and overworked. Give yourself breaks in between each study session.

▪︎Take a warm bath. Your muscles are probably so tense.

▪︎Relax your jaw. You're holding to much tension there. Just relax your body.

▪︎Give your brain a break. Seriously.
