Most of us lead lives that are crammed full of activities. It’s important to have a healthy balance between work and relaxation in our lives. Otherwise, we can end up feeling burned out and stressed out. So how can we create a daily routine that includes time for both work and relaxation? Read on for some tips. 

1. Set realistic goals for each day. 
When you sit down to plan out your day, don’t try to pack too much into it. Be realistic about how much you can realistically accomplish in a day, and don’t try to do more than that. Trying to do too much will just leave you feeling frazzled and stressed out.

2. Make time for yourself every day. 
Even if it’s just 15 or 20 minutes, make sure you have some time each day where you can do something that you enjoy without having to worry about work or other responsibilities. Maybe you want to read a book, take a walk outdoors, or listen to music. Whatever it is that makes you feel relaxed and happy, make sure to fit it into your day.

3. Don’t forget about your physical health. 
A big part of relaxation is taking care of your body by getting enough exercise and eating healthy meals. When your body feels good, it’s easier to relax and enjoy yourself. So make sure to schedule some time each day for physical activity, whether it’s going for a run or just taking a brisk walk around the block. 

4. Learn how to say “NO.” 
One of the biggest stressors in life is trying to please everyone all the time. But you can’t do everything, and that’s okay! Next time someone asks you to do something that you don’t have time for or don’t really want to do, learn how to say “no.” It might feel uncomfortable at first, but chances are the person asking won’t even mind—and you’ll feel better for not having taken on more than you can handle. 

By setting realistic goals for each day, making time for ourselves every day, taking care of our physical health, and learning how to say “no” when needed, 
we can create daily routines that include time for both work and relaxation—which is essential for leading happy and productive lives!
