Life is stressful.

Instead of binge-eating junk food or having one too many at the bar try opting for something healthy like exercising. Exercise not only boost your mood, but it gives you an outlet to relieve stress and take your mind off of work or school. Unfortunately we don't all have the bank accounts to get a gym membership and that shouldn't be the determining factor on whether you workout or not.

Here are four ways you can get a killer workout without burning a hole in your pocket.

1. YouTube.

There are thousands of fitness gurus trying to get their start in the health and fitness industry. While they are perfecting their brand and technique, they upload tons of full workout videos looking for feedback. The videos range from yoga to kickboxing. All you have to do is search for what you are looking for and clear out a space in your living room.

2. Apartment Complex Gym.

If your paying for something, why not use it to your full advantage? A majority of apartment communities come with amenities such as a pool and a fitness center. Check it out one day and see what it has to offer. It may be small in size, but it can get the job done. If your in college, take full advantage of the campus fitness center.

3. Download an App or Two.

The App Store can be a magical place full of new and upcoming trends. It's also home to hundreds of fitness app from popular brands like Nike and some of your favorite personal trainers. The best part about it is that there are a ton of free apps. Each app is different but comes with cool features such as personalized workouts, videos and a community to chat with people who share the same goals as you.

4. Mother Nature.

Florida is full of fun and unique nature trails and parks, so grab a friend and explore. You can walk or bike while sight seeing your way to better health. Just make sure you bring water and bug spray.

You don't need money or a fancy gym membership to get a killer workout. All it takes is some motivation and dedication.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
