Share:

Delhi’s November–February air quality directly affects student focus, sleep and mood. Students preparing for boards or entrance exams in this window need a plan.

Indoor Air Strategy

  • Air purifier in study room (HEPA, with PM2.5 sensor).
  • Keep windows shut on high-AQI days.
  • Indoor plants don’t replace purifiers.
  • Daily damp mop — cuts settled dust.

Outdoor Health

  • N95 mask outdoors when AQI > 150.
  • Avoid morning + evening peak pollution hours.
  • Indoor exercise on bad days (yoga, skipping).
  • Hydration + Vitamin C boost.

Mental Side

  • Pollution + dark winter days = mood crash.
  • Bright study lighting.
  • Brief outdoor walk on better-AQI days.
  • Counsellor support if anxiety spikes.
