    As other people said, walks are great. Good way to decompress after work.

    I also do yoga twice a week. Helped a lot with my back, and keeps my flexibility at a reasonable level.

    Whenever I have small interesting little pieces of trash (like a toothpaste cap, the spring from a dried out pen, handle from an old razor etc) I now have dedicated craft drawers to keep those knick knacks in

    Now whenever I want to make cool little sculptures or crafts, I have a generous collection of various shapes and materials that I can make them out of

    Also helps save on whatever extra apoxie sculpt I would have needed

    Leisure walk every day. 30 minutes is enough.

    Don’t smoke, don’t drink alcohol.

    Drink a lot of water.

    Regular sleep schedule. Sleep hygiene.

    Eat healthy.

    Appreciative social contacts.

    Step outside of your routine. Drive 20 minutes down the road on a whim and go to the park. Go for a walk. Break the monotony of life in small ways all throughout the day/week. Less screen time too.

        Well kind of. But it’s more like touch DIFFERENT grass. Like whereever you live I bet there’s a river or creak or lake or whatever within a 30 minute drive. Go there. Check it out. Sit next to it for a minute. Let yourself be an ape for a minute. It’s what we are. Just follow your whims. See a cool rock? Go check that shit out.

    • 10-15 min walks. Great time to just get the body moving and get into deep thought or listen to an audiobook

    • Having a regular water refill routine

    • Weekly/monthly budget/finances review

    • All the small annoying non “fun” stuff that every old persons unsolicited advice essentially.

    No matter how much your brain tells you that it’s go time… You need to take 10 minutes a day to stare at the ceiling, have a bath, or do nothing and turn that fucker off.

    Take out the next days clothes the night before, its one less thing to think about in the morning.

    Make your bed when you wake up it requires minimal thought and slowly wakes your brain up.
