5 At Home Date Ideas to Reduce Stress

Spending time with that someone in your life can help fend off Stress.

These are stressful times we are living in. Between busy schedules, constant demands on our attention, and ever-present technology, stress creeps into our lives and affects everything—including our relationships. We’ve compiled a list of five date nights that will help you reduce the amount of stress in your life and in your relationship with your loved one. The best part? You can do all of them from the comfort of home.

Comedy Night Date

They say that laughter is the best medicine, and according to the Mayo Clinic—it’s no joke. In the long run, laughter may be able to improve your immune system, relieve pain, make you happier, and help you cope with difficult situations. Better get out the vacuum, because our Comedy Night Date will have you rolling on the floor with hilarious games you won’t find anywhere else.

TV Workout Date

It’s no secret that exercise reduces stress. Your brain produces more neurotransmitters called endorphins when you exercise, which make you feel good and improve your mood. However, for many of us a workout is more work than fun. So how can you make it an enjoyable date? Try one of our TV Workouts. As you watch, pay close attention and do whatever exercises come up according to the plot of the show. You’ll hardly believe this counts as exercise.

Impromptu Dance Party

You get two for the price of one with this date: exercise and creativity. Both can help relieve stress, and all you have to do is turn on our dance party playlist and let loose for awhile. From the comfort of your own home, you can dance like nobody’s watching because, well, nobody is watching.

Karaoke Date

Music can be a fantastic stress reliever because it puts your brain to work and offers a distraction from the world around you. Plus, karaoke adds an element of laughter to the mix. We’ve broken down exactly how you can do a karaoke date from home and even suggest challenges to make your date a little more interesting. Don’t forget to take videos!

Spa Date

The spa exemplifies relaxation and revitalization. And guess what? You can turn your own home into a spa using our tips, from how to draw the perfect hot bath for two to how to do home massages. Throw on those bathrobes, light those candles, and have a romantic stress-free evening.
