Studying may come off as a mentally draining task and perhaps even boring to most. Thus, as students, you might need a ritual to properly recharge during your study breaks to refocus every chance you get.

Having an efficient break is equally as important as having a productive study session. Why? Your brain will need all the attention span it can get to be a successful student. So let’s have a look at some tips to properly recharge you brain during study breaks.

A quick 1-minute exercise

Simple exercises have been shown to improve your memory, creativity, and intelligence, which are all vital if you want to get good grades.

Jumping jacks, burpees, and mountain climbers are all quick and easy exercises that you can do while you’re taking a break to study. You don’t need to do a full workout to get your blood moving. Instead, a few minutes of movement will do the job for you.

If you don’t like working out, take a short walk instead. Then, you can go to the bathroom or the kitchen to get a drink of water.

Keep track of your study breaks by setting the alarm every 25 minutes or so. This way, you can break up long study sessions into shorter study sessions. This Pomodoro technique works wonders in studying. Remember studying is like a marathon, not a sprint.

Munch on something healthy

Snacks are perhaps the most popular to recharge during your study breaks. When you’re under a lot of stress, you’re more likely to eat junk food that’s high in fat and sugar, which can reduce your brain’s ability to learn new things.

If you’re looking to improve your memory and mental alertness, skip the potato chips, cookies, and Snickers bars. Instead, go for brain-boosting foods like bananas, avocados, seeds, and almonds. In addition, the feel-good hormone endorphins are released when you eat dark chocolate, which improves concentration and boosts your mood.

Get some fresh air outside

If you’ve spent the last few hours slogging through mounds of data, you deserve a well-earned break.

Spending time outside has been demonstrated to lessen anxiety, despair, anger, and stress. If you’re able to take in the sights and sounds of nature, you’ll be in a better mood and more focused when you get back to studying.

Now is the perfect time to stroll outside, soak up the rays, and watch the birds soar!

Look at the horizons

If you’re using a laptop or tablet to study for long periods, you may experience eye strain and vision problems. This can cause dry eyes, headaches, and blurred vision.

To study well, you must keep your notes at a 20-20-20 distance from one another. In other words, for every 20 minutes of study, spend 20 seconds staring towards the distance of around 20 feet away (6 metres). Taking a break will help to relieve eye strain and other symptoms.

Mindfulness is the key to relieving stress

It can be very stressful during the exam season because you don’t know if you’ll finish your revision in time.

It’s essential to take breaks between your study sessions to do mindful activities like deep breathing or mindful stretching because they are good at calming the mind. In addition, there’s been a lot of research that shows that meditation, in particular, can help your body’s stress hormone, cortisol.

  • Welcoming Safa to #UniKL! 🎓✨

Team #EMGA had the pleasure of assisting Safa and her wonderful family — her father, mother, and younger brother — who looked fresh and cheerful despite just arriving from Kuwait the day before. 💛

We started the day with her medical check-up ✅, then went straight into a campus tour adventure and accommodation check-in 🏡. Safa’s family radiated warmth and joy, even inviting us to join them for a lovely Indian lunch 🍛🥰. They shared how much they enjoy trying new foods, and can’t wait to explore Malaysian cuisine next!

With 7 days in Kuala Lumpur, they’re especially excited to visit iconic spots like KLCC 🌆✨. We wish them the happiest adventures ahead — and an amazing start to Safa’s study journey here in Malaysia, both in and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀💙

  • A warm welcome to Alaa 🌸—beginning her postgraduate journey at #UKM! 🎓✨

Team #EMGA had the pleasure of assisting Alaa with her registration today, followed by a coffee catch-up right on campus ☕💙. After completing her registration, we also supported her at the visa unit to apply for dependent visas for her children.

Alaa isn’t alone on this journey — her three kids are here with her and have already enrolled in an international school, making Malaysia their new home too. 🏡💛 Though she shared that the registration process was a little tiring, the highlight of her day was meeting her supervisor and having meaningful discussions about her studies. 📚🌟

Here’s to a smooth and successful journey ahead, Alaa — both inside and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀✨

  • Welcome Aini 🌟—exploring her study options at #MonashUniversityMalaysia! 🎓✨

After her brother Rishaan’s recent registration at APU, it was Aini’s turn to discover what studying in Malaysia could look like. Together with her family and Team #EMGA, she toured the Monash campus, checked out accommodation, and got a real glimpse of student life here. 💙

And of course, no visit would be complete without some local flavors — we introduced them to the classic Nasi Ayam and Milo Ais combo, which was an instant hit! 🍚🥤

We can’t wait to welcome Aini back soon to begin her Malaysian study journey — inside the classroom and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀💛

  • Big welcome to Vihaan 🌟—starting his academic journey at #APU! 🎓✨

Team #EMGA supported Vihaan with his university registration, medical appointment, and even helped him explore off-campus accommodation options to ensure a smooth start. 🏡💙

As the only one in his family venturing abroad to study in Malaysia, this is a big step — and Vihaan is ready to make the most of it! He’ll be spending the next few days discovering the sights and experiences around Klang Valley before fully diving into student life. 🇲🇾✨

All the best, Vihaan! Wishing you success in your studies and unforgettable moments both inside and #BeyondTheClassroom 🚀💛

Fresh out of one exam and already rushing to the next — it’s definitely exam week hustle mode for him. 💨 Despite the busy schedule, he shared that he’s happy with his studies and settling in well.

We also handed over his #FreeFlightTicket cash rebate 💵✈️ — a little boost to keep the momentum going during this hectic period. Wishing him all the best for the rest of his exams! 📚💪

  • Kicking off a new chapter for Khader 🌟—now pursuing his Bachelor of Chemical Engineering at #UKM Bangi! 🎓✨

It’s his very first time studying abroad, and with Team #EMGA by his side, everything went smoothly — from registration to medical check-ups ✅. To top it off, we treated ourselves to lunch at the viral spot in Bangi, Mak Kimbong 🍛🔥 (his second time there in just two days — that’s how good it is!).

Extra special thanks to Ms. Iffah, a proud UKM alumni herself, who shared some insider campus spots and made the experience even more meaningful 💙. Khader was super happy to finally meet us in person, and he left feeling confident, supported, and ready to begin this exciting journey.

He was truly happy to finally meet us in person and very satisfied with the support received. He even said he will definitely recommend Team #EMGA to others 🙌. We can’t wait to see Khader thrive and shine bright at UKM! ✨
