Start a journal. Pick a subject to write about each time you make an entry. For example:
- Name 10 things for which you are grateful.
- Make a list of short-term goals.
- Write down 10 words to describe yourself.
- Name some internal and external resources you have to help you through the pandemic.
- Share something that has made you proud or happy in the past two weeks.
- Write about current challenges in your life.
- Make a list of everything you’d like to say “no” to.
Take a walk outdoors – in your yard, on your street, or at the park.

De-clutter your desk or a room.
Spend an entire day without looking at social media.

Watch a sunrise or sunset or appreciate something in nature you rarely have time to notice.
Get rid of five things you never use.
Write down a playlist of favorite songs from your past and listen to them.
