Let\u2019s be honest, nobody loves revision, but it\u2019s a necessary evil when you\u2019re studying. You\u2019re most likely researching revision techniques right now, but knowing how to make the most out of your revision isn\u2019t just about memorising. Having breaks from studying is just as important; resting your brain will let you be more productive later on.<\/p>\n

And who doesn\u2019t like an excuse to not look at the books anymore?<\/p>\n

Exercise<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>Relaxing your body is just as important as relaxing your mind. Adrenalin and endorphins released during exercise help you get rid of revision frustration \u2013 which we know can build up quite a lot! Going to a local shop to get some snacks or having an exercise routine will help you free your mind from studying.<\/p>\n

Watch a Film<\/b><\/p>\n

Watching a film as reward is always fun. Of course, sometimes you might pre-emptively reward yourself for the good work you just know you\u2019ll do, but no one need to know that part. We won\u2019t tell, we\u2019ve all been there! Knowing that your favourite film is waiting for you if you memorise this chapter can be great motivation.<\/p>\n

Your local cinema will have plenty to offer, so if you\u2019ve been wanting to see the latest blockbuster, a break is the perfect excuse \u2013 or reward, of course \u2013 to go see it. Drag your friends with you so you can all relax from revising. We\u2019re sure they\u2019ll appreciate a break, even if they grumble incoherently first about what they still have to memorise.<\/p>\n

Have a Bite to Eat<\/b><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re studying you use up a lot of energy, even if it seems like you\u2019re just staring at the computer in despair. To recharge your batteries, having a meal will get you away from your books and fill your rumbling stomach.<\/p>\n

Treat yourself to a hearty sandwich at the Novel Caf\u00e9 in Lancaster with a lovely, warm cup of tea and a nice book. Indulging in your favourite sweets is the perfect reward for studying.<\/p>\n
