covers, and pillow to form almost a fort setting.
The point is to get super comfy and relaxed. Lay in the middle of it all on your back and simply close your eyes.
Take the time to listen to the thoughts going on in your head. Pay attention to the conflicts that arise, and calm them down by taking deep breaths. You’ll find solitude in stillness, I promise!
Hike To The Beat
Need to get out? Take a breath of fresh air on a hike at your local park. Getting active lets your endorphins run rampant. Grabbing your headset and going for a stroll is just the combination you need for a quick pick-me-up.
The sun will wake you up, the air will fill your lungs, and the walking will activate your system.
Not into walking or running? Make a game of it. Walk to the beat of your music and make a performance out of it. Who cares, who’s watching? They’re only wishing they could do the same!

Cook To Release
If you love food, then you should love to cook. Prepping meals not only gives you time alone, it also gives you time to purely focus on one thing. When cooking, all your attention is set on accomplishing the end goal, to eat!
Distractions may come, but it’s up to you to focus your attention on the task at hand. When you focus, your mind goes into a meditative state, allowing all of your worries and concerns to float right out of the kitchen window. Try it, you’ll see!
