Hey Internet Friends,
Exam season is quickly approaching and so is the huge amount of revision, and seemingly never ending school work. Because of this, I'm guessing it's likely that a load of us will be starting to feel the stress, so today I will be sharing with you some top life tips to help you stay more relaxed and calm.
1) Try to embrace stress - use the stress to push yourself to be more productive.
2) Try to schedule what needs to be done to help stop procrastination.
3) Take time out to relax - yes getting work done is important but so is relaxation.
4) Drink plenty of water - dehydration will get you nowhere.
5) Try to keep work away from your relaxing space if possible - even if this is as simple as sitting in one room to study and relaxing in another.
Hope these are useful to some of you, any more tips feel free to let me know.
Love and Hugs,

Tips For Going Back to School
Hey Internet Friends,
So the time has come when the summer holidays are almost over and it's nearly time to go back to school. But don't panic; I'm here with my top tips for going back to school.
One thing I find helps me with school is packing my bag the night before. I also get out my clothes and shoes the night before so I don't have to run around trying to find everything right before I need to leave. This way I can stay much more relaxed in the morning.
Another thing I find helps me is colour-coding my timetable and keeping a copy at home as well as at school. This way it's so much simpler to know what lessons you have at a quick glance.
I have a weekly plan that I fill in with what homework I need to do and when to ensure I don't miss deadlines and limit stress. This also helps me schedule days where I can relax or go out with friends.
Finally, I like to have these stationary items either at home or with me at school in my pencil case as they always come in handy:

- Pens (Coloured as well as black and blue)
- Pencils (Coloured and grey)
- Highlighters
- Ruler
- Rubber
- Pencil Sharpener
- Sticky notes
- Glue stick
- Stapler

I hope that helps those of you preparing to go back to school.

Revision Tips
Hey Internet Friends,
For me, exams have already begun so I thought I'd share with you some of my top tips for revision.
1) Writing and rewriting your notes.
This is a personal favourite of mine as I find this the most effective way of learning things. It's so simple and quickly helps you remember vital information.
2) Posters
Creating posters to stick around your home can also be very useful, particularly if it's equations and/or diagrams you need to memorise. These are also slightly more creative and fun to make.
3) Flash Cards
Now, I personally don't often use flash cards, however I have a load of friends who do. Easy enough to make and effective if they're right for you.
4) Other methods
Some other methods you could use are:
Creating PowerPoints
Completing past papers
Quizzing yourself with friends and family
I hope this helps some of you.

Top Tips - How to Prepare for Exams
Hey Internet Friends,
Most of you (I'm guessing) will have exams approaching like me, so here are my top tips on how to prepare for exams.
First of all, create a revision timetable. Make sure it's realistic so you stick to it. Leave plenty of time for breaks as it's impossible to learn everything in huge chunks.
Secondly, make sure you sleep well. Be active during the day and go to bed when you're tired. Try not to stay up too late as you need plenty of rest.
My third tip is to keep hydrated when revising. You won't be able to concentrate properly if you're becoming dehydrated.
Finally, spend breaks doing things you love and treat yourself after exams.
Good Luck!

Thoughtful Thursday - School Pressure
Hey Internet Friends,
So, it's getting to that time of year (if you're in a year group that has to do exams) where suddenly all your deadlines for things like coursework have appeared right in front of you. All you're teachers are expecting things from you and want you to prioritise their subject. How do you deal with this?
1) Plan ~ Keep a diary or calendar nearby at all times so you can note down all your exams and deadlines. Then, create timetables for each day with what you need to get done. If you struggle to stick to timings, just create a to-do list each day. This ensures you don't forget anything and don't leave it till last minute.
2) Breaks ~ You must give yourself time off. You can't expect to get a ton of work done in a single day. Break it up and you'll find it all so much easier to manage. During breaks do things you enjoy.
3) Mindfulness ~ If you are a particularly anxious or stressed person, try mindfulness. I have created a post about it before (click here) as I found it something that has really helped me cope with stress.
Hope this has helped some of you. Anything else that helps some of you, let me know through social media or below in the comments.

Top Tips - Back to school
Hey Internet Friends!
As I am going back to school next week, and I'm sure most of you will be as well, I thought I'd give you some top tips for going back to school.
First of all, you should always get your bag ready the night before so you don't have to rush around panicking in the morning. I'm a very stress person and this always helps me feel a bit better in the morning. On the topic of bags, I always like to pack a few extra things that always come in handy: anti bacterial hand gel, hair bands/bobbles/elastics, tampons/sanitary towels, hand cream, deodorant and a small amount of makeup. I find these things are always helpful to have as you never know when you'll need them!
My next top tip is that you should stay organised! It means you won't forget things as easily and you'll be in less of a stressful mess. I have calendars, to-do lists and sticky notes everywhere round my room while I'm at school. I like to highlight days off on my calendar so I can count down the days till I can chill out again!
Another top tip us to keep your room tidy! I recommend cleaning it at least once a week as it makes it easier to concentrate, meaning you can get homework completed much quicker. It's also good to reduce the amount of clutter you have in order to it easier to find what you want.
Finally, keep calm! If you are particularly stressy or have panic attacks (like me), yoga or regular exercise (like walking) is brilliant to help you reduce stress and just chill out more. Try to get as much fresh air as possible. Nice weather? Do your homework outside! It makes you feel so much better, rather than being cooped up inside all the time.
Hope these tips help,
Love and Hugs
