Free time? Free activities!

Did I miss anything? The complete list is below!

PRACTICE HOBBIES:
1. Something you enjoy, not work
2. Making art, drawing, practicing music, etc.
3. Learn a new skill:
- What makes you curious?
- What's something you've always wanted to try?
- Something you find impressive in others
- Something simply entertaining or silly

LEISURE ACTIVITIES:
1. Go out in nature
2. Take a shower or bath, “at-home spa”
3. Drink a beverage while looking out the window
4. Writing (journal stream-of-consciousness)
5. Reading (I would suggest fiction)
6. Napping (in the sunshine)

SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
1. Help them to complete something they have to do
2. Learn a new skill together
3. Photoshoot day (various locations, wardrobe changes, etc.)
4. “What’s in the fridge?” potluck or picnic (3-courses!)
5. Movie marathon, with a theme!
6. Board games or video games

If yo're bored you can go through your notes/ screenshots that are related to "things or people you want to look up later". Now is the time to look up that interesting artist or biology question etc :). It's good to actually look into things that sounded interesting to you a while ago!

"something you enjoy that's not work, like making art, drawing or practicing music" every professional artist & musician has just shed a single tear at that

Thank you for not doing a "Free time? Time to hustle!" video like you always see on youtube, and instead advocating for enjoying leisure time. :D

This is my first Christmas without my parents. Enjoy your family’s company no matter how boring. The time you have to spend with them is less than you think.

I’ve been learning how to draw and paint since this summer and I’m shocked at how much I’ve learned. I actually reduced some of my additional freelance work to make TIME for my hobbies! I feel like such a Victorian woman when I say “I have taken up drawing and painting” as if I have a parlour where my suitors will come admire my work. I’m loving your content about having fun lately.

I'm in college part-time while I work, and I tell people that college is my current hobby. It helps is feel like less of a thing I have to slog through. Instead, it's an opportunity to be excited about. I get to learn new things and grow as a person, and I get a cool degree at the end that'll help me further achieve my goals.

I started learning Irish, but I've dropped it... need to come back. Nice video, L

I picked Up my guitar again during "panorama" and discovered a whole new world of fantastic Tutorials on YT. This, nature and my cat, who is a great companion for Lazy Times. 😸

Great list! I am never bored - I have a dog to walk, train and groom, plenty of books I love (fiction/non-fiction, physical/virtual/audio), masses of music available plus other online content, craft and art supplies, a bathtub, a garden, family and a husband - we like to walk somewhere for coffee, go to a museum or market, see a movie, plan our garden, sail our boats, drive somewhere… Yeah, never bored…!!

as soon as the pandemic started, I bought a ukulele. not my fav sound, but it's a very affordable, portable and easy to learn instrument! I'm not studying as much as I envisioned, but I'm definitely learning, what's always cool

The leisure activties combo is just perfect, something I would like to start doing is going to a sauna alone just to clear my mind and ask myself how I'm feeling

[tippytoe]

Napping = my favourite leisurely activity. Nothing better. Bonus points added for napping with someone else or with an animal.

A tarot reader friend of mine once said that if the energy around you feels "stuck, " move 27 items in your house and it will help. Not sure where she got this from, but there's an idea for y'all 😎👍

[distractdiffusee]

idk why but you seem so caring in this video... you're practically my comfort character now.
definetly gonna use these tips on christmas holidays (we dont celebrate thanksgiving in my country)

I picked up my guitar again after a long hiatus, re-learning songs has been a fun challenge! Can also recommend gardening - seeing something grow and flower is pretty amazing, and getting your hands in the earth is therapeutic imo 😊
Can also be veggies, doesnt have to be flowering plants! Succulents and cacti are a good place to start.

Bored games? Ouchie x) I like them quite a bit. I imagine you had bad experiences with it, that's a bit sad. It's like art, or music, there's a genre out there that fits you better :)

For practicing new skills, I like to find some content creators that talk about something I don't know, and then explore the topic, make my own experiments and try to understand the core concepts

I enjoy repotting plants. Gives me a great sense of satisfaction knowing the plant is happier and can stretch its roots out. kind of reminds me of you!! And it gives one that emersion into nature that you speak often about. from Auntie Karen

[ANNtique]

What a great list!
Enjoy your family time, Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful for you

Thanks Lefie, this video will help me when I feel bored again. There are some days when I feel super bored and seem not to have any ideas to go for.
