Be as physically comfortable as the situation will allow. Wear comfortable clothing. If it's too hot, go somewhere where it's not. If your chair is uncomfortable, change it. If your computer screen causes eye-strain or backaches, change that, too. Don't wait until your discomfort turns into a real problem. Taking five minutes to arrange back support can save you several days of back pain!
Physical activity plays a key role in reducing and preventing the effects of stress. 
Academic life is often sedentary, and sitting around can mean letting stress accumulate in your body. Get up and move to release your stress!!
Try to find something you enjoy and make regular time for it. Running, walking or swimming are good options for some people, while others prefer dance or martial arts- Contact the Lifetime Sports Complex for more info at 850 201-8093. Remember, your body and mind work together.
