Do Something You Enjoy
Volunteering
This is a great way to give to yourself while giving to others. The opportunities here are vast! Here are just a couple of organization to consider joining:
​
Bikur Cholim
Tomchai Shabbos
Chesed 24/7
Neshai
Dancing
Turn up the music and let your spirit go! You don't have to know what your doing to have fun but if you prefer you can start learning some dance moves and even use it at the next wedding you attend to bring joy to the new bride!
Exercising
Go all out and join the gym or just take a brisk walk around the block. It doesn't matter so much as what you do but that you get up and do something that you enjoy.
Join Partners in Torah
Spend your free time either teaching or learning Torah. This is a great opportunity to give to yourself in a spiritual way. Use the url below to start
Painting
The great thing about painting is that you can have fun even if your starting off at a beginner level or you can really challenge yourself and learn new techniques to be on your way to the next great artist!
Start a Business
Have a passion for something that you want to share in some way? Have a talent you can turn into a small business but just haven't done anything about it yet? Now may be a great time to try it out. You won't know if you'll succeed unless you take the time to try :)
Scrapbooking
Want to reconnect with that artsy part of you? Try scrapbooking! It's a great way to access the creative side of yourself and when your done it can be so satisfying to look through or even to present to a loved one on a special occasion!
Play a Sport
Do you love being active in a group setting? Organize your own women's group for a game of basketball, tennis, or rent a pool for swimming.
Reading
Curl up on the couch with your favorite book and get lost in the text!
Socializing
Pick up the phone or get out with a friend! This is a great opportunity to seek out and provide support as you spend time with another adult in your life.
