- listening to worship music
- listening to our favourite musicians such as Pink, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, Avril Lavine (many others of different genres)
- free hand drawing
- reading
- watching a dvd or going to the movies
- going to our favourite beach
- mindfully eating our favourite food such as cheese cake
- playing with our cat
- Play Station
- Catching up with friends who we don't need to put a mask on for
- Playing with leggo
I guess our biggest hurdle is allowing ourselves permission to do these activities without feeling guilty that we are not being of service to other people.
i wish i had sometime for self...really need it..
