There is no automatic way to downgrade a business account to a personal account, you have to contact customer services and they will do that for you.
You can click on help / contact bottom left of every Paypal page for contact options for your country.
OR
You could just close your business account (removing all subscriptions / financial info etc first) and open a personal one BUT 'sometimes' folks have reported having trouble re-using the email address although you should be able to.

Thank you, I was thinking just shutting down the business one first would work.
