As the old saying goes, new year, new you. Or at least that’s what we always hope for.
The wonderful thing about the start of a new year is that you get to look ahead and make plans for what you want to accomplish.
But when is the last time you made self-care a priority?
After the hustle and bustle of a normal day at work, you probably come home feeling exhausted.
Tired, you microwave some dinner and settle into your couch for the evening. After a restless night’s sleep, you wake up and do it all over again.
While it’s true that the weekend offers a respite from the barrage of everyday life, it doesn’t have to be that way.
We think that those who look for them will find opportunities for rest and relaxation during the day.
You don’t have to go over the top and book a day at the spa — unless you want to, of course. Instead, we think you can do a few things from the comfort of your own home that will help make your life a little better.

A Few Things to Try for a Perfectly Relaxing Day
Brew a Cup of Tea
Is a cup of hot tea a part of your daily routine?
If not, you might want to consider making it one.
There are many varieties of tea out there, and that means there’s something for everyone.
From black tea to green tea to herbal infusions, you’re sure to find something that is delicious and relaxing.
Whether you shop at the grocery store for tea bags or you prefer to purchase loose leaf tea online and reuse your leaves for a second cup, having a cup of tea during the day is the perfect time to rest, relax, and reflect.
Practice Yoga
All too often, people get the idea that they need to wear the right clothes, purchase an expensive mat, and sign up for a class downtown to truly do yoga.
The beauty of it is that you can do it from the comfort of your own living room floor while wearing your coziest pajamas.
Modern technology makes it easier than ever to find a guided yoga routine on YouTube, and following along at home makes it a breeze.
Take a Leisurely Walk
In a day and age where people spend thousands on gym memberships or fancy exercise bikes, taking a walk in your neighborhood isn’t something you might be used to.
That doesn’t mean that it’s not valuable, however!
Aimlessly strolling around your neighborhood can help you to work out some of your problems.
And hey, you just might meet a friendly neighbor in the process.
Break Out a Book
After an entire day of staring at a computer screen, the last thing a lot of people want to do is look at more letters on a page.
The truth, however, is that taking the time to get lost in the world of a good book can do wonders for the body and the mind.
If finding time for rest is difficult, all it takes is getting hooked on a good book.
Whether you search for reading guides online or join a local book club through your library, having a book to read can make a world of difference.
