What is boredom? We feel bored when we don’t feel interested, stimulated, or challenged. We can also feel bored when the activities we’re doing don’t seem meaningful or important to us. Sometimes when we have long breaks from school, like during the summertime, we start to feel this way. This is when you know that you need to find something new or interesting to do! If you change the way you think about boredom, you might not mind it! You can use that time to daydream, make plans, or do something creative. Or you can just clear your mind and enjoy a few quiet moments. If being bored makes you feel bad, ask yourself: Do I feel anxious? Restless? Helpless? Angry? The way you answer this question could help you decide how to fix it! Read on for more boredom-busting ideas!
