From going to the gym to doing push-ups and crunches at home, or even going for a walk, physical activities are the best way to empty your head from all your concerns and to allow you to focus on yourself.

And for those days when you really don’t want to do anything at all, call you mother of your best friend. People who know you by heart and who love you always know how to comfort you, and bring the real you back. You can also try meditation. Find what’s working for you!
