Spending time alone is one of my absolute pleasures. I’m sure I’m not alone. You may also like to do that as well.  A few years ago I shared that I had some planning to do and decided on a whim to jump into my car and drive to the beach. A few hours later, I had mapped out plans for my top goals for the rest of the year! yea! I left feeling totally satisfied to get things done! What seemed like an drilling exercise turned out to be quite productive, in a serene atmosphere.

Self-Care

Jo Chunyan shared a list of things do alone. I decided to pull my top 15 to share.

1. Journal. Write up a list of things you would love to do. Declare your dreams and intentions or simply empty out all your thoughts into your notebook.
2. Spend a day at a museum or art gallery
3. Meditate – sit. Be still and devote time to listen to your spiritual thoughts. Breathe.
4. Have dinner on your own in a nice restaurant – take time to really enjoy the food
5. Go for a walk and enjoy breathing the fresh air
6. See a film at a cinema on your own
7. Rearrange your wardrobe and discover old clothes again.
8. Donate old clothes, books and furniture. Make room for the new by clearing out the old.
9. Go somewhere in the city where you have never been
10. Give yourself a mini retreat weekend…eat healthy food, go for a massage, spoil yourself and really relax!
11. Sip a cup of tea and look out the window
12. Be Athletic. Go for a jog or walk on the beach. Breathe in the salty sea breeze and watch the waves lick the shore.
13. Study. Sign up for an online course in any topic you have an interest in and learn something new
14. Take a photo to depict each hour of your day
15. Travel on your own. Learn something new about yourself.

Can you add any? Do share!
