Senioritis

We are at that point in the semester where we would normally be going on spring break and the senioritis is starting to sink in. It's the point where I am starting to burn out and I know a lot of other seniors are as well. I have been trying to come up with ways to keep the stress levels down and the motivation up in order to finish out the semester strong. There are a few things I have been doing.

The first things I have done is continue to focus on working out and going even when I don't necessarily feel like it. Working out helps a lot with stress and on the days that I am tired and sore and just want to lay in bed, I make sure I at least go an do some cardio and ab workouts. Another thing I have done is yoga. I have been trying to stretch and meditate at night before bed to calm myself and relax before going to sleep. That has helped a lot with being able to sleep and not having my mind running a million miles a minute thinking about everything I have to do. Finally, since it has gotten so nice out, I have been walking around campus. Last night I took a late night walk while listening to some music and it was so nice! Between the weather and the music and how quiet campus was it was a fantastic way to to end my night.

I have tried to sprinkle in some rewards and things that are fun outside of school to reset every week. I know others are probably at the point in the semester where they are counting down the days till graduation or just the end of the school year, so I was wondering what everyone else is doing to keep up the motivation?

  1. I totally agree with this! As a senior, it has definitely been a struggle to stay motivated. But I definitely think the tips you gave on working out and mediating are very useful. - Marisa
