Even though you might have a 9 to 5 job and the only "vacation" you have is from saturday to sunday, there are certain things you can do to make your everyday life feel more relaxing, just like a holiday...or sort of.
ASMR
ASMR means Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response: a pleasurable tingling sensation in the head, scalp, back, or peripheral regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli. Sounds fancy doesn´t it? Thanks Wikipedia. Well to sum it up with an example, I´m going to turn to youtube. The ASMR community on youtube is a vast growing community and is creating more and more attention from the media: Lately it has been mentioned on ABC World News and in O magazine. The reason for it, it because of the number of people suffering from stress and insomnia is increasing everyday. ASMR is there to help you relax in a busy everyday schedule. You can either listen to it while doing your homework, browsing the web, trying to sleep or whenever you want.
QUIT FACEBOOK
It may sound horrible, and maybe you don´t spent a lot of time on facebook, but it can be any app or device. Take a day of from gadgets in general and plan a day out with friends, where you do not bring your phone, tablet or computer. You may think the social network platforms have made you more social, but it is actually not true. Because of social media, people often say no to meeting up, because they can just talk over facebook, twitter or whatever it may be.
This may sound stupid, but turning on the tv is allowed: Go to your partner, buy some delicious food and watch a movie from start to finish, without checking IMDB, facebook, messenger etc.
SPLURGE
Go out and buy something nice for yourself...
*NOTE if you are an spender DO NOT spent a lot of money, we don´t want you going bankrupt on us
We would personally prefer to buy some nice food that is more expensive then what we usually eat, because we have earned it after a hard weeks work. But if you are more into buying fashion items, then that´s your choice. Treating yourself, can help take your mind of a hard days/weeks work and make you feel more relaxed, even though you might not be it. It´s all about tricking your mind.
SHOES OF AND FEEL THE GRASS
One of the things we always do, when we get home is taking off all of our clothes, including bh, and changing into something more comfortable. Tight clothes makes a person feel more tense, whereas comfortable clothes helps all the nerves in the body feel relaxed. Something like going to a park whilst shopping and taking of your shoes and just feeling the grass, helps you take your mind off of the fact to you are in a busy environment.
Who says you need to spent a lot of money on a vacation, when there are certain things you can do, to make you feel more relaxed.
