Goals take time and effort to turn into habits. 利用这个夏天尝试一些健康的习惯,这将有助于你在UNH取得学业和个人上的成功. Here are some suggestions to get you started:

  1. Start dispelling the myth of the college all-nighter. You can sleep your way to good grades. 每晚7-8小时的睡眠可以帮助你的大脑和身体重建和重置,这样你就有精力在课堂上充分表现, concentrate and retain and consolidate information. 今年夏天,开始练习保证7-8小时的睡眠,每周7天.
  2. Embrace the awkward. You will have many awkward moments at UNH. 不要因为在校园迷路或者不知道和旁边的人说什么而自责, remember that it’s all okay and no one is perfect. 当你感到尴尬的时候,开始注意到自己的处境, your thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations. 自我意识打开了一扇门,让你对自己更友善一点.
  3. Treat yourself like you would a friend. 你值得被善待,你不必等待别人来给予你. Think about how you treat someone you care about, do you treat yourself with the same kindness and care?  Start checking-in with yourself by asking “How am I doing? What do I need?”
  4. Notice your breathing. 我们的大脑就像猴子,从一个想法跳到另一个想法. 通常,这并没有真正的帮助,而且会导致我们担心或过度思考. To help your monkey brain find some calm, 偶尔停下来,慢慢地深呼吸,注意当你的呼吸进出你的身体时,你的身体感觉如何.
  5. Get moving. 身体运动是给身体补充能量的最好方法之一. 开始每天运动你的身体,不管你做什么,只是运动. Added bonus, 人们发现大自然是一种天然的压力缓解剂,所以在户外运动可以让你的压力荷尔蒙流动起来.
  6. Plan to be social. Making new friends takes effort, courage and persistence. Visit WildcatLink 开始关注所有的学生组织,以及参与到UNH的方式. 列一张你感兴趣的俱乐部的清单,然后制定一个计划去他们的桌子 U Day.
  7. Be okay with not being okay. 当你开始思考和计划向UNH的过渡时,你可能会发现自己在这个夏天有各种各样的情绪. 提醒自己紧张、兴奋、焦虑、好奇都是正常的. 你所经历的所有感觉都是可以的,即使它们让你感到不舒服. 
  8. Practice gratitude. 想想你感激的事情可以增加你的幸福感和幸福感. 在每天结束的时候,通过想想你要感激的事情来养成感恩的习惯.
  9. Nourish your body. 食物是你度过一天所需的能量和清醒认知的燃料. 当你用各种天然食物滋养你的身体时,注意你的身体感觉如何. 顺便说一下,新生15分是一个没有良好研究支持的神话.
  10. Think about the choice to drink or not to drink. Okay, let’s get real. Alcohol is a thing in college. 有参加聚会的学生,也有不喝酒的学生. 想想你希望自己的大学生活是什么样的,以及酒精是否符合你的总体目标.
