I’ve been really struggling to unplug my brain after a heavy week at work and I always overthink my free time, to the point where I don’t know what I’d prefer to do.

What’s your ‘go to’ way to relax or disconnect from real life?

Thanks!

    Others might joke or not joke and say drugs or alcohol, but with the risks of injury in those (and I’m not really a huge fan anyways) I’ll suggest some other stuff. I really like working out in some way, hiking, kayaking, sports, or just the gym. Really helps unwind and destress. Getting on a trail and turning off your notifications really does wonders. I also game and finding a decent game isn’t always easy, but it’s easy to get lost in a game and forget about real life. Treat yourself! If you have money to go out to eat or pickup some cheapo takeout do it. You worked hard, you deserve it.

    Can’t really think of anything else that I do, good luck hope something in this thread helps.
