We have hit the last month of the semester and I think it is important to remember to take some time for yourself. I have listed below some popular relaxing tips.
1. Exercising for at least 30 minutes every other day.
2. Laughing...it releases the healing hormones-endorphins (the body's natural pain killers).
3. Mediation, deep breathing, yoga for 5 minutes twice a day.
What I would like for you to do is add your own tips (3+) that you enjoy doing to ease the stress.
I hope this list comes in handy during the end of the semester and don’t be afraid to try some of these tips.

1. I like to take a nap it refreshes me for the latter part of the day
