5 Ways to De-Stress on Campus

We all know midterm season is CRAZY, but it is important to keep sane during this stressful time. Here are a couple ways to keep cool as a cucumber:

 1. Cardio Exercise

Most people don’t think of cardio as a form of relaxation, but it’s a great way to rid your body of toxins through sweat and get those endorphins going.

2. Yoga

Yoga is a great way to clear your mind and get in tune with your body. There are so many places to do yoga on campus. Check out UBCs yoga club or challenge yourself and try hot yoga at Hotbox.

3. Watch the sunset at Wreck Beach

We’re so lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, take advantage of it by watching one of the beautiful orangey-pink sunsets on one of the many beach on or close to campus.

4. Nap

This one is just self-explanatory. Nothing beats a solid nap.  Bonus points if you nap in the upper atrium of the aquatic center!

5. Try something new and exciting

There are so many different clubs, programs, and cool events going on at UBC. Try something you find interesting. This could be trying a Latin Dance Class or watching on UBC improv team perform.
