restoring alone can look like:
• take yourself to a bookstore
• sit in the sun for 20 minutes
• buy yourself flowers
• paint or sketch badly on purpose
• bake something from scratch
• drive with no music and just think
• watch the sunset alone
• start a puzzle
• thrift something that feels like the new you
• deep clean one small drawer
• take a long everything shower
• print and frame a photo you love
• write a letter to your younger self
• visit a new coffee shop
• reorganize your nightstand
• make a new playlist for this chapter
• walk barefoot in the grass
• delete 100 old photos
• try a new workout class solo
• light a candle and read
• journal at the beach or park
• declutter your phone apps
• cook a meal you’ve never tried before
• sit somewhere pretty and people-watch
• write down what you’re ready to release
