Play some of your favorite music!

Not only are you burning off some nervous energy you are also investing in yourself. There are so many good things that can be said for simply walking 30 minutes every single day. So, get up and get outside and get that vitamin D or, roll out a yoga mat or towel and meditate in your room. There is no such thing as proper exercise, so do you!
