What I Do on Lazy Days (Sunday or Not!)
For starters, I pretty much shut myself out from the outside world; which means phone off! I've had a long and exhausting week and all I want to do is have a bit of peace. A mental health day is what one of my friends calls it; a time to revive yourself.
To reach serenity you have to get as comfortable as possible! I usually go for sweatpants, a worn, rugged sweatshirt and slippers (you obviously want to dress appropriately for the weather). Whatever you're most comfortable in is what we're aiming for!
In order to be at complete ease, I do whatever clears my mind most. Whether it be getting lost in a entrancing book, or catching up on my shows (side note: I've just started watching Gossip Girl, and I can't believe it has taken me so long to get into the show. I'm obsessed! I'm still on season one; but hopefully I'll be caught up by the time season six rolls around on October 8th).
One cannot be tranquil with a growling stomach! Treat yourself with some sweets! You deserve it after the week you've just gone through! Brownies, cupcakes, Haribo gummy bears! For my salty keen people, chips and dip is never a bad choice! And don't forget the popcorn!!
All there's left to do is find a comfy spot on the couch, and take pleasure in your day of relaxation! You deserve it.
For those who have just started off the week and need a mental health already (like me! This Monday was worse than they usually are), have this as a way to motivate you to push through the week. Hang in there; your mental health day is coming sooner than you think!
