What I have done is take a retreat after (or before) a test!. I used to go to a favorite place (a Zen retreat land) after (sometimes before) any of the major tests I had to take at the State college I attended, as a reward and/or to quiet my mind!. The retreat (I call them 'treats') did not cost much, and would be just the ticket to revitalize me!. I would take an overnight kit and spend the night in their special Octagon house!. This place I speak of has gardens as well as a walking path that takes you to the ocean (which has all those negative ions that make you feel GREAT!.) It is my favorite place in California and lucky for me it is only about 2 hours away from my front door, and the price is around 100 dollars a night!.!.!.well worth it for totally cleansing my mind, body and spirit!. I imagine that there is a retreat land of some kind near where you live!. Check into it!. I encourage you to GO!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

it depends,,everyone has a different way, talking about it (about what u went through)really helps me and also you need time to heal so u can be reengergized, you can also read a genre of books that you really like , basically doing the things that make you happy and somehow listening to or getting perspective other than ur own!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
