All people need to rest periodically. But what if summer vacation is not provided for this year? For different reasons. It can be money difficulties, it can be rush jobs at work, or the work season is activated by the warm season. Family circumstances can also interfere with a full rest - the illness of one of the family members or someone from a married couple is not let go from work, but you want to relax together.
But I still want to rest. Yes, and you need to replenish your strength. To do this, you need to organize your free time from work so that it brings maximum pleasure and relaxation. So that the body gets full recovery and pleasure from summer sunny days.
Dream
First you need to ensure proper sleep. Open windows or a well-ventilated bedroom, a freshly tidy room, linens with summer floral motifs and colors, sprigs of greenery on the bedside table or a small bouquet of flowers will create a pleasant atmosphere. Gentle pleasant music during or after an evening bath, watching a light movie or reading a book for a while for pleasure. These simple rules will help a tired body recuperate overnight.
Morning
Awakening to your favorite invigorating melody from the very first minutes will create the necessary atmosphere of joy. Breathing exercises by the open window, a warm-up complex will help to cheer up. Walking to work in the morning or running in the morning will energize anyone. Be sure to pay attention to green bushes, grass and trees, flowering plants. Contemplation of plants and enjoying their sight will give additional minutes of joy and happiness.
Work
If possible, the path to work or part of it should be walked on foot. Every moment you spend outdoors makes up for the time you spend indoors. In the workplace, as well as in your own home, it is advisable to place small vases or pots with fresh green plants and flowers. If it is not possible, then think about where you can place images of flowers, the appearance of which will create a feeling of closeness to nature.
At lunchtime and other breaks, go outside to a nearby park. Even one tree at the entrance will help you to rest in a short period of time. Returning from work, take a walk, stop by a summer cafe, sit down with a cup of juice or another summer drink. Enjoy moments of relaxation and tranquility, smile at yourself or those around you.
Food
In the summer, you need to include in your diet as much fresh fruits, berries and vegetables as possible. Add lots of greens to your food. Freshly squeezed juices and cocktails tone up and bring pleasure. They also help to remove harmful substances from the body that have accumulated during the cold season. Replace scones, cakes, and candy with fruit desserts. Include anything related to spring, summer, and early fall in your menu, and cut out winter foods.
Physical exercise
If possible, do all physical exercises outside or by an open window. Fresh air filled with summer aromas cheers up and energizes for the whole day.
Trips out of town
If you have a summer cottage, you can spend weekends there both in the campaign and alone, depending on your needs. Do what you most want to do there. Grill kebabs, plant radishes with carrots, go to the nearest river or lake, walk your dog in the surrounding forests, pick mushrooms and berries.
If there is no summer residence, then you can go on a one-day or two-day hiking trip. Tourist organizations in each city offer services for organizing hiking, alpine, water and cycling routes. You can also relax on the territory of the tourist base, located in an ecologically clean place. Equipment can be purchased or rented.
Leisure
If you are not a lover of nature travel, but you want adventure, then you can go on excursions to the nearest interesting places. Visits to old estates and mysterious stories, monuments of architecture, visits to events with role-playing games and theatrical performances will take you to another era, show the world from a different angle and turn your attention away from everyday worries.
You may want to meet old acquaintances who have not been seen for a long time, but missed. Time spent in a great campaign will leave good memories for a long period of time.
Fans of an extreme type of recreation can take advantage of hot air balloon flights and other aircraft. Skydiving, water slalom and other adventures await their heroes.
