It can also be done in your study room for 15- 20 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has two benefits \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be doing exercise that is good for health and you will also be able to shake off that sleepy mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>TAKE A NAP FOR 10 -15 MINUTES AFTER 1 HOUR<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, this is a risky move because you might keep sleeping for 1 hour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid that set alarm\/timer for 10 minutes and yes! Your inner motivation is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies have told that short naps are really very good and efficient way of relaxing mind and refreshing it for piles of work that you got.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>CONCENTRATION<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We often feel sleepy in a subject that is beyond our understanding or a topic we find hard to deal with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, invest time in this topic, plenty of time\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know, you are always short of time but you need to give adequate time for you to clear it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turn small sittings of concentration into long ones, try to calm yourself down and remove all the possible distractions away from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frequently shifting your mindset from one thing to another, disturbs our concentration. If you also have this habit, then change it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>WASH YOUR FACE WITH COLD WATER<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It helps in refreshing our mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>DRINK PLENTY OF WATER<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>EAT LIGHT FOOD WITH LESS FATS<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Heavy food takes more energy to break down and can make you feel tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eating light food full of fibres, gives you energy and keeps your stomach full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>EAT SNACKS WHEN YOU FEEL SLEEPY<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When we study, our brain works like machine and keeps craving for glucose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking small breaks for eating snacks can make you feel more energetic &amp; less sleepy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><u>FOLLOW A PROPER SLEEP-WAKE CYCLE<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There should be a fixed time for you to sleep or wake-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6-7 hours are required and considered good sleep. In night, you must sleep at least for 6 hours.
