I personally enjoy taking long walks. It doesn't matter if it's in the woods, on a bike trail, or just through town. There's something nice about just meandering and being alone with your thoughts while still being immersed in the outside world.

Put on some music and sing your motherfucking heart out. ๐Ÿ‘

This is always a good idea, but it's an especially a good idea if you have a lot of energy that you can't just will away or let go of. Sometimes when you can't calm down or slow down, you can redirect and reframe that energy instead, until you've vented it out.
