Have enough sleep
When your body is deprived of sleep, your brain activity mirrors that of brain activity associated with anxiety disorders. That means that a lack of sleep can make you feel more anxious than you need to be. Why don't you try some relaxing remedies like Peaceful Spirit Box available on our online store. It features, calming Lavendel Scent of Warm Neck Pillow, relaxing herbal tea, lavender scented soy candle and lavender salve for your tired hands.
Go for a walk or hike
Walking outside is one of the safest activities you can do amid the pandemic, and it has mental health benefits too. Walking releases dopamine and endorphins in the brain, which produce feelings of euphoria. And if you walk quickly enough to increase your heart rate, you’ll get even more of a mood boost. Our Go Camping Box or Adventure Box is here to help.
