As we near the end of the year, it\u2019s important to remember to pace yourself with your studies.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Life is fast-paced but an overworked brain can lead to burnout. Here are some tips to prioritise your wellbeing:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Preparation is key! <\/span><\/b>\ud83e\udd2f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know Griffith has an interactive <\/span>downloadable planner<\/span><\/a> to assist in planning your studies and keeping track of assignment due dates?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Break it up<\/span><\/b>:<\/span> \ud83e\udd13<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Good <\/span>time management<\/span><\/a> and realistic goals can make all the difference in feeling overwhelmed. Break your studies and assignments down into manageable pieces.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Focus<\/span><\/b>:<\/span> \ud83d\ude35<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Distractions, distractions, distractions! The world is full of them, and multi-tasking divides your attention and affects your <\/span>ability to learn<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>Listening to music<\/span><\/a> while studying can improve your mood or you can try booking a <\/span>study space<\/span><\/a> in the Library to help you focus.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sleep on it<\/span><\/b>:<\/span> \ud83d\ude34<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Eating healthy food and exercising supports the brain to rest when sleeping and allows your mind time to calm down and <\/span>soak up the new knowledge<\/span><\/a>. A happy, well-rested mind is one that has reduced mental stress and is vital for your academic life.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be kind to yourself<\/span><\/b>:<\/span><\/b> \ud83e\udd70<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be compassionate with yourself<\/span><\/a>, celebrate your achievements and know that you aren\u2019t alone in balancing your wellbeing with your studies.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember your support system<\/span><\/b>:<\/span><\/b> \ud83d\udcde<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be afraid to reach out and ask for help.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
