Life is busy, and college is even busier. Everyone gets in a funk sometimes, and that's okay. Here's a few ideas to help you stop, reset, and get out of the funk.
1. Eat your favorite snack.
I know stress eating isn't good for you...at the same time, chocolate ice cream does seem to solve a lot of problems.
2. Make a warm drink.
Hot chocolate—the alternative form of chocolate ice cream if you need something to warm up your insides. Or have both, no judgement here.
3. Bake something. (Is anyone else noticing a food theme?)
Take half an hour to make your favorite cookies in the kitchen. It's a good de-stressor.
4. Watch a sappy movie.
It doesn't get better than living in someone's else Hallmark story life for a few hours.
5. Take a walk.
Get out of the space and clear your head.
6. Write everything down.
It's good to get it all out, even if it's a big brain dump mess on a random sheet of paper you found buried on your desk somewhere.
7. Lay on your bed and clear your mind.
Sometimes you just need to stop and do absolutely nothing. Don't be on your phone or computer or TV or anything. Just stop and let your mind be free.
I hope these little things will help you out if you're feeling stressed!
