Travel + diary + thoughts
I've just learned that it's so important to relax. My schedule is packed. I'm always doing something. I practice in the morning before school academic practices, after I go to school, study at home and practice volleyball again. I'm pretty much organized, I have to and I'm tensed all the time. That's why I need to relax and I have found my ways of relaxing that I want to share with you. If you are having the same issue, then please follow along. I'm glad to assist you if I can. The things that makes me feel at ease are: 1. Taking a long shower/bath. The warm water warms up your muscles and body, it makes your whole body parts all placid . Enjoy yourself while showering , you could even sing if you wanted to. After taking shower, you feel so fresh and good. It'll help your sleep if you take a shower in the evening. 2. Writing down your thoughts. Writing down your thoughts clears your mind and makes space for new thoughts. I always feel so calm by doing it. Take a moment from everything you are doing and write down your thoughts, I usually end up writing in hour or two, not on purpose. It's also good to write the small things over the day that made you happy and grateful. 3. Breathing yoga. There are plenty breathing yoga that you can do and you can find short videos on youtube for example. I really recommend to go out and breathe in some fresh air. I'm usually all the time inside but it always feels good to go out, even for a short walk. 4. Be healthy. This sounds little bit boring but it is really good to eat healthy and you'll feel it straight away when you just bite an apple. Eating clean is not enough though. Go out and do something active, take a walk or do/join practices. I feel somehow relaxed in a different and a weird way when I practice volleyball. I'm only focusing on my skills and my team, forgetting or not thinking about anything else. I eat clean but I also treat myself sometimes with chocolate. I can't describe how much I love my chocolate, but I just have to cut it and eat it less each time. 5. Listen to Music. I don't know about you but I listen to all kinds of music all the way from rock to indie and I do have a special calm playlist on my spotify account. You can check it out HERE. It helps me to relax a lot. These are all of my things that I do to relax and take a break from everything else. It's mentally and physically important. I all the time forget to relax but now I do really remind myself everyday to do it. It's good for your health and you will feel better after doing it. Hopefully some of those tips can help you and please send me a mail or comment below if you know or want to share any other good ways of relaxing that you do. I would be happy to hear them and I would definitely try them out. x
