1. tell all of your problems to a tree; it’s not going to answer back but it will love you
2. stuff your face in a pile of snow
3. get up and dance when there is no music playing
4. stand infront of the mirror with one hand cooly resting on your hip and the other hand pointing at yourself, and then wink at yourself like you’re the most attractive babe out there
5. stop everything you’re doing and speak in gibberish until you laugh
6. paint with your toes to Beethoven
7. roll around on the floor for a few minutes; move furniture around so that you have plenty of space to do so
8. bake someone you are fond of cupcakes and surprise them out of the blue
9. pick a ton of wonderful flowers and hand them out to strangers that pass by
10. when you’re stubborn, stuck, in pride, in pain, in mind, tell whoever your head thinks it concerns these 4 lines in a row and nothing else;
"I love you
I’m sorry
Please forgive me
Thank you”
(Hoʻoponopono)
11. buy yourself a yummy ice cream cone
12. go swimming alone and let your body flow and be one with the water
13. write a real old fashioned letter to your mother or father telling them about yourself and that you love them
14. stand outside in the pouring rain until your clothes soak; and make sure you’re barefoot so that gushy mud can get between your toes
15. go to a park with a swing-set and just swing by yourself
16. make yourself a big beautiful breakfast in the morning
17. give your friends meaningful hugs that last a very long time
18. read a passage or two in The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran
19. shut off your Netflix and go on a bike ride in the middle of the night
20. hug yourself and kiss your hands and your arms and stroke your hair and tell yourself aloud “I love you; I love me” over and over again
21. breathe deep into your belly like a Buddha instead of shallow into your chest
22. go to another city/province/country/continent on your own for at least a week
23. don’t shy away from holding someone’s hand or kissing them if you think it feels right
24. hold a baby in your arms
25. drink a glass of water
