Active Minds at Rutgers

Hi Everybody!

In this podcast, my bestie Daira and I will be discussing the anxiety that comes with completing assignments in college. We explore the different techniques that we use daily to ensure that we are staying on top of our assignments, but also remaining in a healthy mindset. College can become very overwhelming very quickly due to the heavy workload and students may feel like they don't have the time for self care. In this podcast, Daira and I also express how crucial it is to take care of yourself mentally first in order to succeed academically. Hope you enjoy!
