1. Relax with some Netflix in bed!
Okay, Netflix is obviously the number one choice. Who doesn’t love to binge watch their favorite TV show after a stressful day? Whether it be Stranger Things or One Tree Hill, it’s an easy way to forget about your schoolwork for a little while.
2. Pour yourself a nice cup of hot tea.
Calming tea or even green tea is so refreshing after a long day, and can help calm your mind after an ongoing day.
3. Take the time to update your dorm decorations or to even simply clean your room.
I love to decorate my room with pictures of my family and posters that have inspiring words on them. It not only motivates me to do my best in school and all the work I do, but it’s nice to reflect and be reminded of nice memories.
4. Create the perfect stress-free music playlist.
Whether it be listening to your record player or Spotify, making the perfect stress-free playlist is a major key. Music can alter your mood and put you in a total Zen mode, and discovering a new band or listening to a fresh genre can be uplifting.
5. Surround yourself with people you care about and friends with positive energy.
And of course, having friends over in your dorm and just hanging out is another great way to end the night. Being surrounded with laughter and people who genuinely care about you is the best, and these are the memories that will last you a lifetime.
