Fun life experiments
Gathered from this tweet.
24. Catch the mind when it starts to spiral, bring your attention to the breath. We often breathe shallowly which keeps us in fight or flight, try breathing from your belly, filling it up and if you can fill it up to your chest and upper chest. After that, release with a sigh of relief. (Repeat as often as possible) Everything is working out for you, take a moment to feel it — no matter how things may seem. Love you - @amosrichemond
25. Take photos of 100 of the same ordinary thing in the real world. Things like Christmas trees, pumpkins, clocks, birds, anything that excites you. Observe the moments it changes how you see things. - viahttps://x.com/taydotfun
26. Take one of those illustrated tourist maps of your town. Walk every single street and highlight it by hand as you go. - https://x.com/taydotfun
27. When you’re overwhelmed with decision making and you’re at a crossroads, always follow your gut. Listen to what your body feels or tells you; sometimes, your body/gut feeling alarms you before your head/logic catches up. Feeling bad about that job? Resign. Feeling something’s off with some people? Do what you need to do. Sometimes, all it takes is a leap of faith. To further help you with decision making, write the pros and cons in a list. Whichever weighs more and whatever you feel about it -- if it makes you feel great and good, not drained and forced -- that usually tells you something. - @renndrp
28. Wear every piece of clothing you own at least once.
29. Experience little joys in life by being whimsical. Be mindful of what others might perceive you as, but do not necessarily heed or hold yourself to what others think of you – life is too short to care about other people’s opinions! Always hype yourself up, respond and do things that bring you joy regardless how cringe or embarrassing it may be to the world. Your future self will thank you, your inner child will help you navigate this world with ease as you grow older. -@renndrp
30. Look at all your relationships or friendships or people in your life with love, because it’s never wasted. And you never know who needs a little more love.
31. Break Bread with close friends whenever you can. Alone time is great, don’t get me wrong, but eating with friends at opportune times is a game changer for your mental health and overall wellbeing. -@jcfla2
32. Gather your friends together in one place or a weekend, watch one another’s favorite movies, and have everyone’s favorite playlists compiled into a master playlist. Y’all should listen to those songs only. Cook each other’s favourite meals and eat them, then listen to each person explain why the movie you watched is their favorite and why the meal is their favourite. - @ijalob_oyab
33. Let a friend or group of friends dress up each other, put a name to the resulting character, then go play it out on the streets. Any person being dressed is forbidden from choosing what she'll be wearing. @serr_no
34. Make up a trophy/award for something, and gift it to someone @eleanor_mollie
35. Take a night bike ride.
36. Write a 2,000-word “travel” article about your own living room or backyard. What details would you notice that you currently ignore? @saikytweets
37. Bake or cook something you have never tried before - just for fun! What did you like this most about it?
