[quote=Anonymous]1. I dote on the pets. We have nontraditional pets (snake, etc) and I enjoy researching ways to enrich their lives and observing their reactions to that and their alien way of being. Animals are very grounding and a good reminder of how to exist while living in the moment.

2. Being in water. Pool, ocean, hot tub, etc. I would like to try a sensory deprivation tank at some point

3. Yoga and weight lifting classes, haircuts, general self care, A new lipstick as another PP suggested, etc.

4. Good books about subjects completely unrelated to anything in my life

5. Art projects like embroidery. Going to see Art, whether it is in the museum or a craft fair or whatever

6. Regularly writing to old friends, even if it’s just a quick email to say hi. It doesn’t need to be fancy. Scheduling lunches or coffees with people at work or people I used to work with.

7. This weekend is the Perseid meteor shower. Go take a look! Watching the night sky can be very joyful

8. Sometimes I just pick like a square foot of the ground and carefully examine everything in it, looking at all the little insects and plants. This is enjoyable. To see all these little things making their way in the universe.
