Don't do anything. To do nothing is not meant to lie around with a book, watch TV or meditate. To do nothing is to do nothing. Just sit in silence, listen to your inner voice. Try to do it daily.
Stop playing computer games. Computer games are fun, but they take too much time. Try not to play them at least a week. Try to spend on the street and then the time you used to spend in front of the monitor.
Look at the sunset. Sunset is one of the most beautiful moments of the day. Get a daily ritual — find a place offering beautiful views of the sunset and watch it, you can do it during dinner.
Stop read magazines. Modern logs is mostly a waste of time and money. Be more selective, subscribing to another magazine or buying it at the kiosk. Better yet — read books.

Laugh to tears. Laughter is one of the best ways to feel alive. Remember any joke, read a joke, watch a Comedy, laugh with other people. Love laughter and appreciate it.
Lose control. We are talking not only about control, but control over other people. Trying to control others is a very bad habit. This can lead to stress and other various troubles. Let us live to ourselves and others.
Cry. It is considered that people are not supposed to cry, especially men. This is not so. When a man cries, he gives vent to his emotions. If he keeps them, they accumulate and create issues. That can't happen. Cry when watching sad movies, cry at the funeral. Do not limit yourself. Cry, if someone made you suffer. Thus you can purify yourself.
Make the dessert. You can make pancakes with a fruit filling, pour over ice cream or hot chocolate to make an Apple pie. You don't have to do it daily. Pamper yourself at least once a week.
Try something new every week. Every Monday, ask yourself the question: "What new I'm going to try this week?" You don't have to learn every week a new language, just looking for new experiences. Try new things, to understand whether you need this in your life.
Live in the here and now. Instead of worrying about what you can happen, to plan, to remember and regret the past, think about what happens to you in the moment. What surrounds you? What do you feel? What smells around you? What thoughts do you have? What you see before you? Pay more attention to the present, because life is the moment.published
