10 Stay-at-Home Ways to Relax and Unwind

Let’s face it. No matter how much you love life and live it with gusto, we all need to take a break from it all and just slow down. When you’re overloaded with family, work, and other obligations and responsibilities, a little at-home “me” time is exactly what you need to revitalize your weary, stressed-out bones.

What indoor activities do you have planned when you have decided to stay at home for the weekend? Rain or shine, pampering yourself, challenging yourself, and/or simply shutting down can work wonders to rejuvenate your tired mind, body, and spirit. Whether it's through good food and wine, and, yes, even going on a house cleaning frenzy, here are 10 stay-at-home ways to relax and unwind from the daily grind.

• Ramp Up Your Yoga and Exercise Routine: Physical exercise not only passes the time. It also makes you feel good, healthy and confident with yourself both during and after your workout. Yoga is a great way to lower your stress and bring your anxiety and frustration level down to zero. It's time to meditate more!

• Read a Great Book: Much like watching an excellent movie or TV sitcom, reading a juicy or entertaining novel can take you into an enchanted world that erases every form of your own stress and anxiety away. You are transformed into the story and time passes by quickly. Think spicy romance novels!

• Treat Yourself to a Mobile Styles Beauty Makeover: Experimenting and playing with makeup is fun, even if you aren’t a girly girl. Cosmetics and makeup allow you to define your features, add depth and dimension to your face, and build your confidence. Everyone looks pleasing and pretty with great makeup. Better yet, contact Mobile Styles and let a trained beauty professional come directly to your home.

• Either Binge on Social Media or Disconnect From Social Media: If you think you're exhausted and need a break from all things social media, shut down your phone and take a breather from your favorite social media sites. If you need some “me” time but still want to see what’s going on in the world, surf the internet and other social media sites. If this is how you feel, then, by all means, lose yourself in social media and play away.

• Order Delicious Take Out Food and Feed Your Inner Foodie: Yes, even healthy eaters need to splurge once in awhile. Treat yourself to a yummy fast food meal or delicious vegan restaurant. Top the meal off with a sinful dessert that’s out of this world and don’t count calories. An occasional to-die-for meal and scrumptious dessert once in awhile won’t hurt you. In fact, it might do your body and mind good!

• Paint and Decorate Your Nails: We all love a great manicure! Nail art is playful, youthful, fun, and decorative. Either a do-it-yourself, at-home manicure on your own or head over to the Mobile Styles app to book a nail artist to come to your home and turn your bland nails to gorgeously amazing nails!

• Tackle a Difficult Jigsaw Puzzle: Putting together a jigsaw puzzle provides you with the same benefits as coloring: You relax. Your mind blocks out all negative thoughts as you concentrate on your puzzle and once you are finished, you'll feel relaxed and proud of yourself.

• Clean Closets or the House: Okay, I know some of you are saying, "Wait! I need a relaxing weekend, not a weekend full of chores. Believe it or not, cleaning can make you feel useful, productive, and happy. A good cleaning provides you exercise, an obtainable goal, and a happy ending: organized closets and a clean house. Removing dirt, clutter, and unwanted items will make you feel lighter and satisfied, not to mention you’ll see the results of your accomplishments immediately!

• Treat Yourself to a Fabulous Facial: We all adore soft, blemish-free, beautiful skin. Whether you are male or female, everyone cares about the skin they are in.

• Movie Night/Game Night: Invite your closest friends, people that are upbeat, and fun to be around. Binge watch your favorite movies and/or television shows or play games all night long. Party until the wee hours of the morning, and sleep in the following day! This will mentally and physically revive your tired body. An equal amount of play and rest will bring you back to your emotional best!

Your stress-free weekend of at-home spa treatment is over. Now, you're rejuvenated and back on the daily grind. You have nothing to fear. You feel relaxed, refreshed, and ready to tackle the world.

Treat yourself to a stay-at-home weekend doing all the things that make you happy. It's a foolproof way to ignite your inner fire!
