Waking up super early just to sit in a building for 8 hours is not always on everyone’s top ten list. Summer has expired and dealing with personal problems and school all at once is a true struggle. Optimizing your health during stressful school days is necessary for a great year!

Digging through the endless amounts of pins on Pinterest, I came across “No Bake Energy Bites”  to boost your school day! According to EverydayHealth, teenagers need roughly 8-10 hours of sleep, and with the help of a nutritious breakfast, energy bites like this will power your mornings to get through the day. On Pinterest, @cookingclassy believes small snacks are essential for early mornings. This quick and easy snack is a must for the beginning of the school year:
