January blues can be tough. But what should you do when Blue Monday comes around when you're trying to prepare for your exams?

We've gathered together our top tips for chilling out! So if you need a break, why not try some of these ideas, to get yourself some zen vibes...

Catch up on 'Derry Girls' on Channel 4

The new hit show on Channel 4 seems to be the perfect revision distraction at the moment. Be safe in the knowledge that there’s only two episodes out at the moment, so at least you won’t be getting too distracted!

Wander at the Walker Art Gallery

Find some Pre-Raphaelite beauties, hang out with Lucien Freud or have a peaceful wander amongst the statues - all for free.

Make like a hippy in Sefton Park

Watch the ducks, hop across a brook, frolic in a fairy glen. What else does a student need?

Grab a cuppa at Leaf on Bold Street

They say - "we have a range of 50 rare loose-leaf teas from across the globe". We say - get the kettle on!

Stare at the sky in Abercromby Square

If you're studying history, languages, archaeology, politics or Irish studies, then it's right on your doorstep.

Ghetto into golf
