Fun is a perspective, we are born with a complete understanding of fun.
Fun and laughter are healing to our body, spirit and mind.
How can you bring some fun into this week?
Here are a few suggestions to get you started
1. Take yourself on a date, a picnic, an art gallery, to a funny movie, to a café/restaurant and order something you have never eaten before.
2. Create something, anything without expectations of how it looks, embrace the process and the flaws - get some clay (the stuff you can bake in the oven), create something, silly, cheeky, useful, not useful, abstract, it doesn't matter, sew, draw, paint, write a short story, bake a cake or meal you have never made... just create something new to you.
3. Find the BEAT. Put some music on loud in the car and SING, boogie in the kitchen on your own, move and sing without caring what you sound or look like, just how it feels.
4. SMILE to yourself, the cat, to anyone, to a tree, just smile for no reason, see how it feels. I've heard that kids smile 400 times more than adults. Smiling is a catalyst to fun.
5. Give yourself permission to break a few of the pointless rules in life or in your head... put your Christmas lights up today just because you like them, wear odd bright socks, eat desert first
