Create – Enjoy some arts and crafts, try out a new recipe, or take a new class on something! Get those creative juices flowing and find some inspiration.
Family – Regroup with your loved ones and spend some quality time together. Get coffee, share stories, go out for food, do an escape room. Remember what’s truly important.
Journal – Take some time to reflect on your semester. What were your goals? Did you accomplish them? What were your frustrations? How about successes?
Organize – This can be incredibly calming. Sort through your desk drawers, supply closet, and planner. Starting the new semester off with a clean slate is a great way to set yourself up for success and keep the soothing tones from winter break into effect.

Plan – Create a to-do list for what you would like to accomplish, and assign tentative dates for these goals.
Read – Whether it’s a blog or novel, find something that is engaging or inspirational for you.
Relax – Nap (or hibernate), yoga, hiking, video games, binge-watch Netflix, no shame!
