14 A – Stress Relief- Necessary

Stress Relief- Necessary

In order to relieve my stress, while I was home for Thanksgiving I went to the gym near my house.  I enjoy going to this gym more than any other gym I have tried. I went here on a daily basis before I started at Southern.  Now I go when I am home.  I do go to the fitness center at Southern; however, I do enjoy my own gym better.  I have a routine there to follow, with the assistance from the owner, and it is very stress relieving.  I feel much better about myself after I go and work out at the gym.

I also will spend some of my time relaxing and sleeping in.  It is relaxing to know that I do not have to get up at a certain time to attend class. I can get up whenever I want and relax in my own room at home.  I can lie in bed and watch whatever I want on television.  I can also get up whenever I want and go to the kitchen and open the refrigerator and find all of my favorite foods in there ready for me.  That is the best, especially after being at school and not always getting what you want o eat, when you want it. It is stressful for me to eat food that I do not feel is good for me. I enjoy eating healthy and done always feel that I eat healthy, especially at school.  So it is less stressful when I eat good food, and there is always good food to eat when I go home.

Spending time with my family is stress relieving also.  It is just so normal and not different or stressful like school is sometimes.  I enjoyed spending time and playing Xbox with my little brother.  Just doing normal everyday things that I did before I went to college is stress relieving to me.
