Beating Homework and Study Fatigue

After a long day at school it is expected to be a little tired.  It is difficult for a "fried brain" to absorbs information.

• Break up your homework time into chunks. 
• Take regular breaks. Set a timer; take a 5- to 10-minute break for each hour you study. 
• Get up, stretch, and move around. 
• Do physical exercises during study breaks. It will help relieve tension and make you feel awake. Walk around a bit, stretch, do jumping jacks, or jog in place.

Believe it or not dehydration could be causing you to feel exhausted when studying.  Drink water and eat fruit: water will refresh your system, and an apple provides the same effect as an energy drink.
