    Going for a walk is an essential activity for me to reset. Riding my bike has a similar effect. I’ve started leaving my phone at home.

    Reading as well. Something light-hearted if I’m seeking joy.

    I have a small garden on my balcony. It’s not successful right now but it’s enjoyable to watch something green grow.

      What about playing FTL? :)

      I’m with you on everything except gardening. It sounds appealing in the abstract, but then in the spring it turns into “ugh, too much to do” and “ugh, gotta get up early to water” in the summer.

      Actually…what DID get you into gardening in the first place? Maybe there’s something to it that I’m missing.
