This will give you the opportunity to plan ahead for the year and reflect on what you have done the previous year.
In order to feel relaxed, you have to be in a peaceful space and not allow your mind to over think.
Getting in that mode can be challenging for some people, especially if they are not use to allowing themselves some “me” time.
Here’s a list of eight things you can do to relax before going back to your hectic schedule:
- Take long walks in the mornings and evenings
- Read a novel under a tree or at a park
- Listen to classic music
- Meditate
- Write your thoughts on a journal
- Enjoy nature at a park
- Take long baths adding calming salts
- Tend to the garden
