The winter break is a perfect time for students to relax and have some “me time.” It’s nice to finally have some time off and not have a huge to-do list hovering above your shoulders. Having some down time is important as it helps to keep you from burning out. Here are some great ways to relax:
- Read a good book
- Catch up on some sleep
- Have a nice warm bath
- Watch a movie
- Exercise
- Do some yoga/stretch
- Listen to soothing/relaxing music
- Enjoy a cup of tea
- Go for a walk
- Take a few deep slow breaths
- Count backwards from 10
- Drip cold water onto your wrists
- Write in a journal
- Cuddle with a pet
- Laugh
- Talk to a friend or close family member
- Colour/draw

Going for a nice long drive through the city at night. Downtown Toronto has some really beautiful lights and sights.

those are some great ideas! Something I enjoy doing when I want to relax is baking. It helps me to get my mind of anything that may be stressing me out AND gives me some tasty treats!
