Self-Care during exam weeks is a non-negotiable. Prioritizing your sleep and well being during exams will enable you to perform to your best.
Prioritising Sleep- sleep is when your brain processes and stores information
- No caffeine after lunch, caffeine can stay in your system for up to 6 hours so cutting off at lunch ensures it won’t interfere with falling asleep at night time
- Screen Free Evenings- Avoid screens for an hour or two before bed so that the blue light does not interfere with your melatonin production
- Keep your bedroom for sleep only and keep it cool. A cooler sleep environment helps your body naturally lower its core temperature which signals to your brain that it’s time for sleep.
- Try out a pre bed routine with some breath work or journaling to help unwind the mind
