How you rest in the evening affects your productivity the next day. It is essential that the rest is effective.
Instructions
Step 1
The basic rule of effective rest is that work should remain at work. Sometimes overtime is unavoidable, but the constant extra stress after a hard day will leave your nervous system exhausted.
Step 2
Immediately after work, devote 15-20 minutes to complete calmness and silence. A relaxing environment will help you switch your mind from difficult work tasks to thoughts of relaxation and pleasure. Let it become a kind of ritual - 15 minutes of relaxation.
Step 3
Not everything that you consider to be relaxation is such. For example, computer games. If you play shooters and horror games after work, you continue to overextend not only your mind, but also your body, and with absolutely no benefit and with splashes of negativity. With greater benefit, you can direct your mental activity to reading, and physical activity to playing sports. It is these two activities that are among the most effective and productive types of recreation.
Step 4
Take the time to do something you love or something that you would like to do for a long time. Create a hobby for yourself that will bring you pleasure and relaxation. A few hours of leisure as a substitute for computer games and TV will constantly develop you for the better, and rest will seem like a real rest.
Step 5
Another effective way to relax is to spend time with family or old friends. If you haven't visited relatives for a long time due to constant employment, haven't seen your friends for months, then now is the best time to do it.
