Set up a timer that keeps you reminded to take breaks. After studying for 2-3 hours, take a 5- to 10-minute break to remain focused while studying.
Take a short walk or some gentle stretches. This improves blood flow and mental sharpness for good concentration.
Throughout your breaks, drink plenty of water. Keeping proper hydration aids cognitive performance and keeps you engaged during study sessions.
Take healthy snacks such as walnuts or apples. Nutrition snacks help you stay focused and give you energy without a sugar crash.
Try a few minutes of inhaling a deep breath. By reducing stress and anxiety, it lets you go again studying with focus.
Either go out or seek another location. Your imagination can be boosted and your mind recharged by a change of place.
Turn on that favorite tune or other soothing tunes. You are happier and have a greater desire to study when you listen to songs.
Meditate for a couple of minutes. When you come back to your studies, meditation helps you focus more effectively and clear your mind.
Review what you've learned all through breaks. Reflecting on what you've done boosts your insight and enhances motivation.
