Often, college students are consumed with vasts amount of pressure from all aspects of their lives. Whether it be studying for hours on end to achieve the illustrious 4.0 status or attempting to attend every social event on an elaborate social calendar, there is very little time to sit back and take the edge off. Aside from the usual napping for hours on end or binge-watching the latest series on Netflix, here are a few ideas for a perfect day full of tranquility.
Spending the day having a picnic
Picnics are an easy way to wind down and take in the sights around. If you are anything like me, food has a way of bringing a sense of peace in any tough situation. If the idea of a basic picnic seems boring, try throwing in painting with a twist or reading the latest edition of Vogue.
Taking a day trip to the beach
The beach can be one of the most exciting yet peaceful places for any individuals. Sure the sand can be slightly irritating, but the crashing of the waves onto the shore can make even the tensest individual kick their feet up while enjoying the view.
Exploring the local bookstore
In a society overshadowed by technology, sometimes taking a step back and skimming through the pages of a book can give a sense of serenity and solitude. Look up the hours to the local public library or simply take a trip to Barnes and Noble.
While there are numerous other things that can be done to rid the stress of everyday life, these three activities can help almost any individual reach their desired level of relaxation.
