Work / Play Balance

When you are trying to juggle your studies, social life, work, sports and extra-curricular activities, it can be really hard to find a healthy balance between life and study. Finding a good balance between work and play is important for your own hauora! Know your limits, you don't want to go full blast at the beginning of the trimester and be blown out by the end - remember, it's a marathon not a sprint. Cramming and studying at the beginning may work for a bit but it's important to recognise when you have too much going on. If you're not keeping on top of your studies you may need to drop some of your commitments, but it's just as important to realise when you need to take a break. If you are struggling with the same paragraph, you need to clear your head. Go for a walk, catch up with a friend, just look after yourself and prioritise your hauora!
