Self-Care: As you wrap up the semester, make time for self-care. It means actively protecting your own well-being and happiness, particularly during times of stress. Taking breaks and caring for yourself help restore energy, produce positive feelings, and boost your confidence. Practicing self-care reminds you and others that your needs, too, are important.
