Mental Health and Wellness Book: This Is Your Brian on Anxiety

With the semester winding down and exams right around the corner, you might be starting to feel particularly stressed in law school. It’s smart to be proactive about managing law school stress and anxiety. For example, you can schedule in exercise, yoga, or meditation or plan for a relaxing afternoon with family or friends.

You might also want to check out our Mental Health and Wellness Book collection for some inspiration. Granted, this probably isn’t the time for lots of extra reading, but some of these books are really really short, so you can skim them between classes or as study break.

One super short book to try is This Is Your Brian on Anxiety: What Happens and What Helps. It’s a breezy 63 pages. Some case decisions are much longer than that! The book’s also very cheeky and conversational, kind of fun to skim actually. But it’s helpful, too, with tips on what anxiety feels like, and how to deal with it.

You can find this book and others in our Mental Health & Wellness Collection, located in the Ohio Room as you walk in. All of the books from this collection can be checked out at the circulation desk. You can explore the collection online through our Mental Health & Well-Being research guide.
