Life in general can become so chaotic. Sometimes it may feel completely unbearable. Between class, work, Greek life, clubs & organizations, and all that homework, enough stressors exist to make one feel temporarily insane. When it does, one should take a step back, seclude oneself, and regroup. Spending time alone does not necessarily make you a “loner.” In fact, I think it keeps you independent and not codependent. 

 

The key to balance is to seek solitude.   Here are five different ways to help you find peace of mind in your busy life:

  • Yoga
  • Listen to the Sound of the Ocean
  • Cuddle with Your Pet 
  • Curl Up with a Good Book 
  • Sip On Hot Tea
