I’m gonna scale back how much time I spend online but it’s pretty damn boring. I’ve been on sedentary lifestyle since the lock down and to put it bluntly it’s starting to take its toll. I can even feel the effects of a sedentary lifestyle negatively affecting my gaming sessions.

I’m riding a bike again after giving up several times. I already know how to swim in deep waters. Any other ideas? I am looking for other hobbies outside art and gaming.

    I got a dog. I take dog for 2 hour walks each evening and practice walking meditation. It’s done wonders for my mental health

      this.

      having to take care for another being, being responsible for it, made me take care of myself so i could care for it better. i don’t know if that’s healthy, but it’s what it is.

        I think it’s generally healthy, they do that as a form of therapy in homes. Even just taking care of a plant improved people’s moods.

          Absolutely. We get so hung up on ourselves. Having a pupper around reminds us we aren’t the center of the world. They are lol
