Whenever I start to feel overwhelmed there are certain tasks or activities that I know will calm me down in an instant. Especially since being more open about my anxiety, I have learned to focus on what makes me feel good and to do those activities more often. A concept, I know. I wanted to share those activities with you today for you to try the next time you feel a little overwhelmed and need some calming down.
1. Go For A Walk–Sound too easy? That's because it is. I am working from home and living my life in my apartment that sometimes I forget what outside feels like. Walking Oliver twice a day forces me to go outside, even when it's a little chilly, it's still totally worth it to get some fresh air and sunlight.
2. Journal–I can't talk enough about how much journaling has helped me as a person. Being about to journal and get things out my head is so calming and because I'm naturally a creative person I love getting lost in creating a spread. It just puts me in the best mood.
3. Stretching–I don't mean exercising to get fit (though if that works for you–great). I mean listening to your body and stretch every muscle. Use a back roller to get the spots with the most tension. When you're done you'll feel lose and ready to tackle the day.
4. Bubble Bath–Ooooh I talk about how self-care is not just a bubble bath–it's true it's not–but I love a good bubble bath after a long day. Bubbles, bath salts, essential oils, face mask, a candle and your favorite tv show on Netflix. Wow, what a vibe.
5. Read A Book–I prefer fiction books (mainly because it's a world you can simply get lost in) but if you like non-fiction or motivational that's cool too. Get lost in a good story and just enjoy it rather than making it feel like a chore.
xoxo, Michele
