things to do during the stay at home order
Bake something that you have never made before. I love flipping through old recipe books, searching for delicious treats.
Journal. I use it to write up a list of all the things I want to do each day, declare my dreams, plan out my vision and track my wellness habits. I think journalling in the morning has really helped me set the tone for the rest of my day.
Meditate - sit, be still and devote time to listening to your breath.
Make some popcorn, add your own toppings (be creative!) and have a movie marathon.
Listen to an album from start to finish without doing anything else. Or find a playlist that resonates with what you are feeling on 8 Tracks or on Spotify.
Do a grocery shop at your favourite organic grocers and splurge on something you don’t have very often.
Start a herb garden that will sit on your windowsill. This is perfect for small apartments. Also, most herbs are quite hardy and will last throughout the year.
Create a mixed tape or playlists for all your different moods and occasions. I have ones for running, yoga, studying and working.
Rearrange your wardrobe and discover old clothes again.
Clean and organize things around your home. Try using Marie Kondo’s KonMari method for decluttering in order to spark joy!
Create a calming space in your home for working on your hobbies or projects.
Paint, draw, sketch, write - let your emotions and intuition guide you to with this one.
Make a terrarium from a selection of succulents and moss.
Create a Pinterest board to help visualize and bring your next adventure to life.
Make an Acai bowl or smoothie bowl, topped with fruit, yogurt, super foods and granola.
Light a candle, take a relaxing bath - try adding some essential oils and herbs like sage, camomile or peppermint!
Roll out your mat and do yoga to rejuvenate, energize and relax. If you need a guided yoga practice that you can find online, I highly recommend Yoga With Tim.
Think of 50 questions that you want the answers and consult Wikipedia.
Rearrange things in your room using Feng Shui to bring more light, flow and harmonious energy to your space.
Give an old chest of drawers some fresh paint or replace the door knobs in your house with vintage ones.
Give yourself a mini retreat weekend - eat healthy food, spoil yourself and really relax!
Sleep, doze or power nap as much as you need to. Read more about sleeping in my post How to Hibernate.
Sip a cup of tea and look out the window.
Catch up on all your favourite blog posts.
Give yourself a manicure - try a different styles like Leopard prints, marbling effects, dots etc.
Wake up early to see the sunrise. Or make time at dusk to catch the sunset.
Study. I love studying in my spare time. Sign up for online courses on any topic you have an interest to learn more about.
Take a photo to depict each hour in your day.
Make a gratitude list. I just add to this list over time and whenever I feel unhappy, I read through it. It instantly cheers me up and puts things into perspective.
