Work life and home life can be difficult to juggle and finding ‘me time’ where you can relax seems almost impossible. Now I know that you’re thinking; that you are the most stressed when you are at work, but who isn’t? This is my trick to stress relief at work and at home, and it includes using Audible

How It Helps Me Relax
I mentioned above that this app helps me relax, and I am going to share with you how. The problem that we all have is that we don’t take time to relax or take a step back, especially at work. We eat our lunches at our desks and stay late to finish projects.
For me my lunch break and mindless jobs like doing the washing up or hoovering are perfect times to listen. Take a time out to immerse yourself in a story that you wouldn’t otherwise find the time to read its enjoyable, relaxing and even helps with anxiety because it takes your mind away to the story anytime and anywhere.
What Would I Recommend?
I have been subscribed to Audible for some time now and my personal favourite so far has to be Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty A school trivia night which resulted in disaster, one parent dead; but was it a tragic accident? murder? or was it planned all along? The story has you giggling, amazed and shocked all in a 10 minute time frame. I loved this listen and I would say is well worth a listen.
West Cork is an Audible Original series, upon download you receive 13 episodes which last approximately 30 minutes per episode, based on a true crime, listeners are guided through all the interviews and documents which were recorded trying to discover the cause to the unsolved murder of a woman just days before christmas in West Cork Ireland.
