5 Steps to a Relaxing Commute

5 Steps to a Relaxing Commute
BAY CITY, Mich. - Millions of Americans spend their morning commuting to work - no matter if you're worrying about what's waiting for you at work, or feeling stressed about what's going on at home, the drive to your workplace can feel dull or troubling. To help you combat the stresses of driving, here are 5 steps to a relaxing commute:

Listen to an audio book. Your commute to and from work is a great time to listen to your favorite book, or become interested in a new one. By getting into a good story, your commute will fly by - not to mention you'll look forward to your next drive so you can continue the story!

Listen to your favorite music and sing along. Did you know that singing loudly and intensely is actually considered an aerobic exercise? It is! So turn up your music and sing along to your favorite songs - you'll feel less stressed and ready to take on the world.

Make your drive a social one. If you live near co-workers, or your friends work near you, ask them if they'd like to ride together! Not only will this help reduce the amount of times you fill up, it will also give you someone to talk and laugh with during the commute.

Prepare the night before. If you pick out your clothes, make your lunch, set the timer on your coffee machine, and have everything ready to go the night before, you won't feel stressed in the morning! Being able to start your day with everything ready and waiting is a great feeling, which means you won't feel as stressed during the commute or left feeling like you forgot something.

Leave early. It can be extremely stressful to be on the way to work when unexpected construction or an accident puts you behind schedule. By leaving a couple minutes early, you'll feel more in control of your morning and less concerned about how late you're going to be to work. Not to mention, arriving at work a couple minutes early will only give you bonus points with the boss!
