5 WAYS TO DESTRESS AFTER A DAY’S WORK

How to rest, relax, and let go after a busy day

We all need to take a step back from the daily grind sometimes, and this is super important, especially when we’ve been working all day. This is not always easy because we are used to working and doing things. The key is to give yourself permission to let go and destress.

So, how do you relax and destress from work? Here are five ways to do just that.

TAKE A WALK. This can help you sleep better, feel less stressed, and enjoy some alone time. Whether it’s a quick jaunt around the block or a more extensive hike, taking that daily walk is excellent for clearing your mind and can help improve your overall well-being.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH. Take a few minutes to yourself and do some breathing exercises. Mindfulness meditation has been proven to have numerous benefits, including helping to calm the mind, improving mental focus, decreasing stress, and even helping you sleep better at night.

START JOURNALING. Journaling can be therapeutic for many people. It is a great way to get your thoughts and feelings out there so you can process them. Our Daydream Journal contains questions you can answer in 10 minutes or less to clear your thoughts before bed.

RELAX IN BED Sometimes, you may feel just too exhausted and not want to part with your bed. So, what can you do? You can light a relaxing scented candle, listen to music, and read your favourite book. Try to keep yourself away from the computer, TV, or your phone before bedtime, as these devices have been shown to interfere with sleep.
