Spring Break is usually associated with itineraries, socializing, and traveling — which can wear you out. Maybe what you need is to slow down and decompress by:
- Limiting screen time. Try leaving your phone in the car when you meet a friend for lunch so you can give them your full attention. A small digital detox can pay off big.
- Cleaning out your social media accounts. You may have some social media clutter. Spend some time purging what you no longer find valuable.
- Resting. One word: naps!
- Getting fresh air. There’s something cleansing about being outside, even in the rain or snow.
- Exercising. If you can combine exercise with fresh air, all the better.
- Organizing. As you organize closets and drawers, find things to sell, donate, trade with a friend, or throw away. A break is a perfect time to purge physical clutter, too.
