Day Two of Take a Brain Break Week

MCC Libraries are still with you virtually as we make our way through the end of the semester. We hope you shared some ways you relax and work through stressful times on our social media pages yesterday.  Traditionally during Take a Brain Break week the LVG Library provides study snacks, coffee, tea, and hot cocoa for students.  Since there's very little which is traditional about this semester, this time we are raising a virtual cup to you today.  Cheers!

Did you know that tea is the second most consumed beverage on the planet, after water?  That is surprising since there's a Starbucks or Dunkin' on almost every corner in some places of the U.S.! You can learn more about tea in the article 100 Facts About Tea. A fun fact for all the java junkies out there--coffee beans are technically seeds.  They're the pits of the cherry-like berries found on flowering shrubs. Read 21 Surprising Coffee Facts That Will Perk Up Your Afternoon to see how much you really know about your daily cup (or two) of joe.

** Reminder: Don't forget to make it to Donna Burke's meditation session today at noon.  See attached for the link.**

Here's what is happening the rest of the week:

Wednesday- Puzzle and game day!

Thursday- Using meditation and yoga to manage stress

Friday- Wind down your week with music
