任务型阅读

    Laugh

    But research has shown that a good laugh reduces stress and, even if you start by forcing yourself to laugh, improves how you feel.

    Sleep

    Get enough ZZZs.  Not getting enough sleep makes you angry and sad, so leave your phone outside your room, turn off the lights and let yourself have a good sleep. Sweet dreams!
