Reading week is a perfect time to catch up and take care of yourself! Here is a self-care plan to get you started. Prioritize your well-being, recharge, and find your balance.

Eat healthy, exercise, and stay hydrated: 

• Walking for just 30 minutes a day can have a positive impact on your health and happiness.
• Don't give up if you can't work out for 30 minutes at a time. Small amounts of exercise add up!
• Try adding a fruit or vegetable into your meal. You might grow to love them!
• Always have a water bottle on you to remind you to stay hydrated.
• Cut back a bit on our caffeine intake during reading week. 

Do relaxing activities and prioritize sleep:

• Take this opportunity to catch up on sleep!
• Explore relaxation apps such as guided meditations or listening to relaxing music.
• Spend time with nature or relax indoors with a good book.
• Take this time to rest and restart.

Practice gratitude. Focus on positivity: 

• Every day, remind yourself of what you are grateful for.
• Be specific. Write them down or run them through your thoughts.
• Write down your negative thoughts and change them into positive ones. Challenge them!

Have fun:

• The most important is to have fun!
• Relax, unwind, and rest your mind during this week.
• Prioritize yourself, spend time doing what you love, and connect with your loved ones.
