Hello all! If you have been sick lately (as I am as I’m writing this), but your life still requires you to do stuff, don’t worry! I decided to dedicate this entire post to tips on how to stay productive during sick days, because although we all want to work during those days, we often feel as if we can’t. However, with some simple tips I discovered you will be able to do a significant amount of work regardless of the fact that you’re sick, so please enjoy!

• Take an early morning shower to feel refreshed and awake; it will help you get the day started more effectively and can help you feel less sick or nauseous
• Don’t wear your pyjamas all day, instead dress up as you normally would but instead wear a sweater that will still keep you warm and comfortable
• Do your routine tasks in the morning (cleaning your room etc.) and start doing assignments and work in the afternoon (you’ll likely be more awake by then)
  
• Revise and study little chunks of your work throughout the day; do not study for one hour straight, instead divide up your tasks into smaller parts of 10-minute revision
  
• Draw all of your curtains and let as much daylight into your room as possible for maximising brain activity
  
• Open the window and let clean air circulate through your room (it will improve concentration and will again make you feel less nauseous)
  
• Drink plenty of water and eat plenty of healthy snacks (fruits and vegetables) throughout the day and whilst studying; it’ll keep your concentration levels up and running and will prevent you from feeling sleepy or tired
  
• Make your bed so it will be less tempting to re-enter during the day
  
• Avoid sleeping in between revision but instead sleep for 3 hours in the afternoon if you really feel tired and bad
  
• If you’re too sick and weak to write (this actually happens), type your assignments out on your laptop and rewrite them once you are feeling better
  
• If it’s hard to resist sleeping, go study in your living room or kitchen since this will literally eliminate the feeling that you bed is nearby
  
• Have yourself some cups of coffee if you want to feel more awake and concentrated (but beware of the post-caffeine rush & don’t drink it 2 hours before sleeping)
  
• Eat a wide variety of nuts (this really works!)
  
• Go to bed once you’re done; but be wise and don’t go sleeping any later than 10 ‘o clock
  
• Don’t forget to take you medicine!
  

 I sincerely hope that this post will help you out! Feel better soon :)
