1. Personal Day

On days where you don’t feel like going out, make sure to eat well and take care of yourself. Maybe you’d like to put nail polish on, read a book, write some poetry, maybe even watch a movie and relax.

2. Self Check

3. Explore

Take this time to try some new things, maybe learn how to meditate, do yoga, try doing a handstand (make sure to be careful). I find days where I don’t want to go out as a good way to dream and explore and love myself.
