Stress Releasers
Summertime is the perfect time to bring some healthy new routines into your life. Call up a friend and go out for a walk. Visit the local park, take a trip downtown to go window shopping, go fishing! Whatever it is, get out there and do it. No friends are free? Put on your iPod and spend some quiet time with nature. It is amazing how much more focused and 'in the zone' you become when you get moving. It is like a walking meditation. It helps everything else you do in your life.
While you're playing with your iPod, put together a playlist of motivational songs that really get you enthusiastic. Every one of us has different musical tastes, so it doesn't matter if they're pop, rap, country, jazz, or any other style. The key is that they touch your soul. Music has a *profound* impact on how we feel and think. Use that to your advantage!
Be Creative!
Your brain is like a machine. If it sits idle too long, it's hard to get those gears turning again. If you exercise it regularly, and keep it in practice, then it's sharp, smooth running, and can amaze you! Keep your brain in good running condition. Give it fun things to do! Think up creative challenges for yourself. Write a poem. Draw a picture. Grab your camera and take some photos of things. Write a short story about something memorable in your life! Don't worry about your results being "perfect". It is all about practicing, and the more you practice, the better you will get!
