24th of July is international self care day - something that medical students can often forget to prioritise.
But in order to do your best work, you need to feel your best, so below are a couple of tips on how to do this:
1 - It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with the amount of content in medicine so space out your revision so you’re doing a little bit everyday.
2 - Have a checklist or timetable to help organise your day!! Schedule in some fun and have things to look forward to each week.
3 - Try something new and find an interest outside of medicine.
4 - Make an effort to meet people and maintain friendships. Schedule in meet-ups and social events. They’re just as important as revising.
