Reading 11 Read these tips from students on how to relax. 0 Sophie 3 David I'm learning to play the piano at the moment, and when I need a rest from studying, I just sit down and play something I'm not very good at it, so my brother usually tells me to stop! But I still enjoy trying! I know I need to get enough sleep, so I try not to have any food or drink that will keep me awake I don't have any lemonade or cola in the evening. And it's really hard, but I try to eat Junk food only at the weekends. I can stay in bed a bit longer in the mornings then! 1 Ben 4 Lisa I can sometimes look at the same page in my book and an hour goes by and I haven't learnt anything!
