No one has all the ideas all the time, so I wanted to make a spot where you could come to get ideas of how you could be active and care for yourself.

Check out some ideas. Some are recipes for yummy treats, or guidelines of how to do certain activities.

Treat yourself to some fresh fruit

Prep time: 5 min

Fun time: however long it takes

What's this all about?

Fruits are some of the most diverse foods on the planet! You can have sweet, bitter, sour, strong, or tart fruit. It all depends on your taste.

The science behind it

Most people aren't getting enough healthy food in their lives. Especially when faced with a stressful situation. Fruits are not only a great source of minerals, but they also are full of water too. Dehydration and hunger can lead to stress becoming even more intense than neccessary. So snack up! And you can snack virtually guilt free!

Pick up a book

Prep time: 5 min

Fun time: how ever long you want!

What's this all about?

The prep time consists of finding a book! You can look through your physical bookshelf or grab an ebook. The point is to pick a book that you can lose yourself inside of!

The science behind it

When you think about how turned on our brains are all day, it's no wonder that we get tired. Lots of people, myself included, think that by watching shows or videos online that we are giving my brain a break.

But that's not entirely accurate. Watching shows uses up much more energy than reading a book. I can remember back to when I was a kid and I would rather have picked up a book than watched a movie. Our brains get used to one type of stimulation. Reading has been proven to be the best for us. And the best stress reliever.
