6. Incorporate Frequent Breaks
Continuous studying while feeling sad can quickly lead to burnout. To prevent this, take frequent breaks. Use a technique like the Pomodoro method, where you study for 25-30 minutes, followed by a 5-minute break. During these breaks, do something that brings you joy or relief, whether it’s listening to your favorite song, stretching, taking a short walk, or doing a quick breathing exercise. These small acts of self-care will help you recharge and stay focused.
