]]> For most of us, the working day comes with its fair share of stresses and irritations. On a good day, we can leave these at the front door, but on a bad day, the evenings after work can be spent feeling anxious, frustrated, or overwhelmed. If you’re struggling to switch off after the working day, check out these tried and tested methods which should help you to relax and enjoy your evening.

Get Stuck In

Strange as it sounds, using up some energy on some household chores as soon as you walk in can be a good way to use up any pent-up frustration and settle into your evening. Choose a task you don’t hate – maybe the vacuuming, or washing up – put on some music and give yourself ten minutes to use up some of that leftover energy. The fact that you’re getting some housework done at the same time can only leave you feeling positive and productive.

Head Outside

Unless you have a physically active role that’s based outdoors, the chances are you’ve spent most of the day cooped up inside staring at a screen. Make the most of your free time and head outside, even for just a stroll around the block. Getting some fresh air is a great way to soothe your mind and body, and the exercise will also head off any lingering irritations or stress.

Follow A Recipe

Unless you’re back in super late from work, a good way to make the most of an evening is to set yourself the challenge of following a detailed recipe and whipping up something delicious for yourself. Sometimes, getting lost in the physical tasks of cooking can be a great way to settle our minds and bodies, and nourishing yourself with tasty, wholesome food is a great act of self-love which can set a positive mood for the evening.

Don’t let a bad day at work spoil the rest of your evening – follow these tips and let yourself calm down and relax, so you can enjoy your free time.

]]> These are weird times. Coronavirus isn’t over yet, yet our lives seem to have somehow returned to their same old hectic, stressful pace. If there was ever a time to need to breathe, calm down, and take care of ourselves, it’s now. So if you’re looking for a TV show that can help get your heart rate down and make you feel centered, here are three good suggestions.

Planet Earth

There’s nothing more soothing than nature doing its thing when human beings don’t get in the way, and that’s exactly what the Planet Earth series is about. And then, of course, there’s David Attenborough’s voice which can make anybody feel better even in times of crisis.

Unlikely Animal Friends

Okay, there’s really no more joyful sight in the world than seeing two animals of different species love one another and become friends. If this is the type of thing that makes you happy (how could it not?), you absolutely have to check out this National Geographic show.

The Great British Baking Show

While American cooking competition shows tend to be high-stakes, high-tension, and high-stress, people love The Great British Baking Show for being the opposite. No yelling, just peace and sweet treats. Enjoy.

Call a Friend

If you miss your best friend during the lockdown, than hearing her/his voice for a few minutes is the best way to cheer yourself up while catching up with your friend.

Pet Your Dog or Cat

We all know that there’s nothing more relaxing than petting and playing with dogs and cats, so if you have pets take a five-minute break to spend some time with them.

Establish a Routine

Incorporating meditation into your daily routine is the best way to ensure you will stick to it. Try taking five to ten minutes to meditate every morning after you brush your teeth.

Find Your Space

If you find a comfortable space for your meditation, your mind will follow. Make sure to find a place you feel safe and free from additional noises or clutter.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B6nCXy5n533/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Try Not to Attach

Your mind will likely wander during meditation and that is completely normal. Try acknowledging your thoughts and allowing them to pass by instead of becoming attached to them.

Position Matters

Even though the stereotypical meditation position is a cross-legged seat, it isn’t always comfortable for everyone. Try to find a mediation position that feels suited to you and your body.
