Many libraries now have lending services for ebooks, too, making it even easier to sneak a few moments of quiet relaxing time.

2. Go For a Walk 散个小步Anytime you are feeling like you just can't take anymore, head outdoors for a brisk walk. Getting your body moving is a great way to destress and let your brain work through your problems. Or grab a friend and chat away while pounding the pavement.

5. Sing a Song 唱个小曲Even if you're not a professional crooner, sing asong. Turn the radio up and sing along to your favorite tune, or hit the townfor some karaoke. And singing gets your blood pumping — due to the deep breaths you take to belt out a tune — which elevates mood.
