Sometimes I feel so constrained for time. You can’t always take a vacation when you need one, but planning for ways to get away from the pressure of daily life has to be a priority, especially with the lives that we all lead.
- Picnic at the park- Take a whole afternoon or day if possible. Watch the clouds go by.
- Feed the ducks- My dad loved to do this. It’s very relaxing.
- Visit the pet store- Watch the fish or interact with the other animals.
- Spend the day at a historical library- Being in beautiful surroundings is a vacation for the mind.
- Botanical Gardens- Especially the conservatory during the winter months. Flowers will cheer anyone up.
- Go for a hike-There are so many possibilities for your available time and desired challenge. Try this website.
- Spa day- We are lucky to have so many modalities in this present age.
- Tour of your city of something unusual or interesting-There is a tour for everything. Food tours are very popular.
- Go fishing- Just be. Enjoy the fresh air. Just find out the catch and release policy in your area.
- Go horseback riding- I’m still impressed that you can go horseback riding in most places, even within cities.
I hope my simple suggestions help you find relaxation before you are overly frazzled. Truly your imagination is the limit. Build these appointments into your calendar.
