Ep 42. Watch this before starting your new year prep

Hello there!I hope you’re having the most lovely week. Welcome to December, the season of celebration, family, and preparing for the new year.I heard recently that a way we often cope with stress is by starting new things, when really we should be closing old loops, finishing projects, and actually completing things rather than continuously starting new things.So I made a promise to myself that before I start making my vision board for next year or buy anything new that I might need, then I first of all need to get rid of anything I don’t currently use or need.This is why this week’s episode of The Balanced Student podcast discussed exactly this: How to simplify & declutter for the new yearWhilst this isn’t directly a study tip, having a decluttered and organised life can honestly just make you feel more on top of things so you can feel mentally fresh and ready to go for the new year and starting school again in 2026.Aria xInstagram: @byariaemilyJoin Ecadamie: www.ecadamie.com
