- Meditation & Mindfulness
Meditation is a way to help train your mind to focus on something positive. By focusing on a single object, such as breathing or chanting a mantra, meditation helps bring awareness to the present moment. When you meditate regularly, you’ll notice you become calmer, more patient, and happier. - Exercise
Exercise is a great way to relieve stress, boost mood, and improve sleep quality. Not only does exercise release endorphins (the body’s natural painkillers), but it also boosts serotonin levels, which makes us feel good! - Journaling
Journaling can be done either manually or digitally. You can write down thoughts and feelings, or even draw pictures to express yourself. Writing about your emotions and experiences can be helpful in understanding them and how they affect you. - Yoga
Yoga is a great practice to relax your body and clear your mind. Try doing yoga at home before bedtime, or take a class once or twice a week. - Listening To Music
Music is a great way to calm your mind and create a relaxed environment. Find songs that make you smile or think positively. - Reading Books
Reading books can be relaxing and calming, especially if you choose a book that inspires you or gives you insight into different topics. - Volunteering
There are many ways to volunteer, including helping out at a local food bank, donating blood, or just giving back to your community. Volunteering can give you the opportunity to meet people who have similar interests to yours, and may inspire you to pursue a career in social work.
